Episode 55 – The Long Good Friday (1980)

Bob Hoskins, mouth open to speak, London Bridge in the background I guess, wearing a white pinstripe suit Sam Reich would envy.

This classic British gangster film is also a meditation on capitalism, crime, and the death of the British Empire. And weird as hell to watch post-Brexit. Featuring stunning performances from Bob Hoskins and Helen Mirren, this film is easily one of the best we’ve seen for the show. Some come and listen to us talk about the IRA, gay mobsters, and how Remington Steel was not great.
