Brighton Rock is released in the UK on 4 February 2011. It is the latest film from director Rowan Joffe, based on Graham Greens’s novel and stars Sam Riley and Helen Mirren.
The Story
Brighton Rock is set in the mods and rockers era of the 60s. It charts the headlong fall of Pinkie (Sam Riley), a razor-wielding disadvantaged teenager hell bent on clawing his way up through the ranks of organized crime. At the heart of the story is the anti-hero Pinkie's relationship with Rose an apparently innocent young waitress who stumbles on evidence linking Pinkie and his gang to a revenge killing that Pinkie commits.
