Long Good Friday

Impressive British gangster movie about the IRA ruining a London mobster's turf. Lots of Irish character actors appear and the movie is fast paced. Difficult to follow at times (there's a lot going on), the music is great, and the locations are well known. Lots of hard men, sleazy pubs, and a naked scouser! Famous final scene done in long take. The director went on to make the Veronica Guerin movie When the sky falls which like swimmer Michelle De Bruin has been airbrushed from history!
