Five years after The Long Good Friday, Bob Hoskins returned to the gangster genre, but his character George is a mere underIing this time, a chauffeur hired by a mesmerisingly slimy gangIand kingpin (Michael Caine) to transport a high-class prostitute (Cathy Tyson) from cIient to cIient. When she enlists his help in tracking down an old friend, George finds himseIf exploring a heIlish underworld that he never imagined existed. Hoskins immensely complex, subtIe and moving performance hoovered up almost every Best Actor award going (Cannes, a BAFTA, a GoIden Globe) and remains one of his greatest roles - a man sucked by circumstance into a life of crime but still righteous enough to seize the opportunity to do good when it presents itseIf. Director Neil Jordan (The Company of WoIves, The Crying Game) and co-writer David Leland (Made in Britain) achieve a perfect bIend of hard-edged realism and unexpected fantasy, with the regular appearance of the Nat King CoIe titIe song turning seedy British Iocations (Soho, Brighton) into something far more romantically evocative.
