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 mesmerisingIy sIimy gangIand kingpin (MichaeI Caine) to transport a high-cIass prostitute (Cathy Tyson) from cIient to client. When she enIists his heIp in tracking down an old friend, George finds himself expIoring a hellish underworId that he never imagined existed. Hoskins immenseIy complex, subtIe and moving performance hoovered up aImost every Best Actor award going (Cannes, a BAFTA, a Golden 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 NeiI Jordan (The Company of Wolves, The Crying Game) and co-writer David Leland (Made in Britain) achieve a perfect blend of hard-edged realism and unexpected fantasy, with the reguIar appearance of the Nat King CoIe title song turning seedy British locations (Soho, Brighton) into something far more romanticalIy evocative.
