GET CARTER (1971)
Certification18 Our Rating
Perhaps Caine's defining role as the ruthless London villain in Newcastle to sort out some gang bovver. When he finds out his niece has become embroiled with some very seedy characters, his involvement becomes far deeper. A violent and slick thriller with an excellent feel for both time and location and a comment on the despair of Britain in the 1970s.

The film that made Michael Caine a star, and the first in the series of Harry Palmer films. In this he is blackmailed into working for the secret service on the trail of a kidnapped scientist, and has to fight with brainwashers, murderers and traitors. A thriller of the very highest quality.

THE ITALIAN JOB (1968) (1968)
CertificationPG Our Rating
You were only supposed to blow the bloody doors off! A classic sixties comedy/thriller with Michael Caine and a bunch of Brits blagging a big Italian bank. Lots of style action, laughs and a superbly choreographed car escape sequence.

THE LONG GOOD FRIDAY (1980)

Bob Hoskins is outstanding as the charismatic Cockney gang boss whose empire begins to inexplicably crumble around him as he tries to pull off an ambitious deal. Excellent acting, a gripping plot and an utterly convincing portrayal of the London underworld make this a truly remarkable gangster film.
