The Long Good Friday Bob Hoskins' Cockney mob boss Harold Shand rips up the screen in John Mackenzie's ferocious gangster epic. It has a fresh locale -- Margaret Thatcher's London, just starting a decade of big business profiteering. Helen Mirren is excellent in a movie rated as one of the best English films ever. An Explosive Special Edition from Anchor Bay, with top-notch extras.   4/01/06 Posted by DVD Savant at March 31, 2006 08:01 PM
