Today sees the release of the James Mc. Avoy and Mark Strong starring Welcome To The Punch, and as youll know if youve read our review, its a slick, unusually ambitious, gorgeous looking and absorbing British cops and robbers flick. UI9RoHirxTo/hqdefault.jpg' alt='Kind Hearts And Coronets Full Movie Part 1' title='Kind Hearts And Coronets Full Movie Part 1' />Its also the latest film with Danny Boyles even better Trance following sharp on its heels next week to prove that our cousins across the pond can take on the crime movie with the best of them. U. K. crime cinema doesnt necessarily have the immediate iconography or obvious movements of the 1. Warner Bros gangster pictures, film noir of the 1. Coppola and Scorsese epics of the 1. Coens and Tarantino in the 1. But theres a long history of thieves, robbers, murderers and more in British movies, in a variety of films that may have flown under your radar. And so with Welcome To The Punch on VOD and in limited released, and Trance on the way next week, we thought it was a perfect time to pick out some of our favorite crime pictures from the Sceptred Isle. Read our picks below, and let us know your own favorites in the comments section. Brighton Rock 1. We hope we wouldnt have to say this, but if youre after a cinematic take on Graham Greenes seminal novel Brighton Rock, you should run a million miles from the recent, impressively cast Sam Riley, Andrea Riseborough, Helen Mirren, John Hurt but ill conceived remake, and stick with the 1. Richard Attenborough reprising the role that brought him to fame on the West End stage a few years earlier stars as Pinkie, a fresh faced psychopath in a gang in the coastal town of the title, who finds himself rising up the ranks after killing a newspaper reporter. To avoid the rap, he marries besotted waitress and witness to the crime Rose Carol Marsh to stop her from being able to testify against him, but with the law and rival gangs closing in, Pinkie decides he might have to take more drastic action. Penned by Greene and The Deep Blue Sea author Terrence Rattigan, and directed by the somewhat forgotten filmmaker John Boulting, its one of the seminal, and probably earliest, examples of the British gangster film retitled, for its U. S. release, Young Scarface, marking quite the contrast with its earlier namesake, melding Boultings fine, almost proto noirish sense of place, the seedy underworld of the picturesque seaside locale, with Greenes ever simmering Catholic moralism. Gossip Girl Season Two Episode 11. Its stylishly made and dark as you like, but what really stands out is the astonishing, terrifying bug eyed turn from Attenborough, a million miles away from the avuncular star of Jurassic Park and director of Gandhi hed become in later years. Attenborough became one of the most important figures in the British film industry, but this acting role is the one hell always be remembered for. Croupier 1. This cool neo noir follows the aspiring writer Jack Manfred Clive Owen, who ends up taking a job as a casino croupier in order to make ends meet, which leads him both to juggling three women a store detective Gina Mc. Kee, a fellow croupier Kate Hardie, and a high rolling South African gambler Alex Kingston and being the inside man of a heist of his workplace set up by the latter. Its pretty thin on plot, or even much in the way of the staples of the genre, but makes up for it with lashings of atmosphere, a realistic and lived in sense of the world, and most of all, the casting of Clive Owen in his breakout feature film role who commands the movie in a lead turn thats both suave and self aware. Owens narration taken from the thinly veiled novel hes writing, gives it echoes of both classic crime fiction, and a more complex examination of narrative. It mostly disappeared when it debuted in the U. K. in 1. 99. 8, but became a critical darling in the U. Watch Dear Dumb Diary Online Full Movie'>Watch Dear Dumb Diary Online Full Movie. Watch King Of Queens Series Finale Online. S. two years later, earning a devoted following and placing on the National Board Of Review list of top ten films for 2. So all in all, a fine return to the genre for Mike Hodges, who perhaps made the seminal British crime film with Get Carter see below, and he reteamed with Owen soon after for the lesser, but still worthwhile Ill Sleep When Im Dead. Down Terrace 2. If youre looking to find a fairly unusual British Crime film that barely fits into this motley crew of movies, Ben Wheatleys debut, Down Terrace, could be the one. As English as Marmite, Down Terrace can seem like an acquired taste with its pitch black and Sahara dry humor, mixed with truly disturbing and purposefully banal sequences, but when it connects, Down Terrace is wicked, and wickedly funny. A dysfunctional family film centered around murder and betrayal, set in Down Terrace in Brighton, the movie chronicles the Hill family, who soon unveil themselves to be genteel sociopaths and criminals. Upon release from prison Bill Robert Hill, his son Karl his real life son Robin and his wife Maggie Julia Deakin decide they should try and flush out who ratted on the two criminals. This doesnt really mean bloody recriminations at least not at first and but more the very English manner of bringing friends and suspects over for tea and dinner to talk. One by one, associates are politely dispensed with and Karl who has recently learned he is going to be a father begins to fray and come unhinged, wanting to leave this life of crime behind to just become a good dad. Featuring the use of hilariously ironic folk music and blues Karen Dalton, Robert Johnson, much of the humor in the film is derived by the absurd mundanity of the situations the Hills arguing with a friend to come out of a bathroom so they can let him go, deciding hes not a culprit, only to kill him anyway. Its not quite as accomplished as Wheatleys other films, Kill List and Sightseers, but its brilliant in spots and certainly announced the arrival of fresh new voice in English cinema, who has risen to be one of the best indie auteurs weve got at the moment. Gangster 1 2. Much more a psychopath film or even a twisted serial killer movie, Gangster 1 still obviously applies here, as its set in the Londons crime world in the 1. Bookended by a much older version of said numero uno gangster in the present day played by Malcolm Mc. Dowell, Gangster 1 opens up with some old, fatcat gangsters watching a boxing game, when one of them mentions that Freddie Mays is finally getting out of jail. This triggers an angry and upset Mc. Dowells trip down memory lane, which forces the narrative to flashback to the younger version of this top dog now played by Paul Bettany in the 1. The film then charts the rise of the anonymous gangster as he becomes muscle for the influential London gangster Freddie Mays David Thewlis. But Gangster 1 has much more on its mind than your typical crime film and the movie chronicles our leads mad obsession with Freddies power, wealth and status, to the point of wanting not just to become him, but to inhabit his soul. Persona for the gangster set Maybe, as its just as much a picture about identity and rivalry as anything else. Directed by Paul Mc. Guigan The Acid House, Lucky Number Slevin, while Gangster 1 looks appropriately vintage and does feature strong, unhinged performances by Mc. Dowell and Bettany who became a star off the back of the film, that might be the only thing the movie does right other than its off the rails psychopath sequences that are as if Alex from Clockwork Orange grew up to be not only a raving loon, but a monstrous sociopath as well. Marred by constant, unnecessary voice over from Mc. Dowell, Gangster 1 just slathers it all on, never really takes a break in tone or defines to the audience why they should care. Even more ill fitting is the finale. Mc. Dowell once again returns as the aged version of Bettany, but Thewlis, and co stars Saffron Burrows and Eddie Marsan inexplicably stay the same.
