Lumet's complex and atmospheric thriller is based on a real event. Pacino is superb as the neurotic and incompetent gay bankrobber who needs the money from the robbery to finance his lover's sex change operation. The film's beauty is it's closely detailed psychological observation. Excellent.

Neil Jordan's Oscar winning thriller. Distinctly unusual very bleak and sure to become a classic. Split into two distinct sections, pre- and post-trauma, the atmosphere is superb. Electric performances from all the cast, and a vicious twist make this a must. British film at its best. find out more...
