Dead Man’s Shoes 18

In Shane Meadows' electrifying thriller, Paddy Considine stars as a disaffected soldier who returns to his hometown seeking revenge against the thugs who bullied his brother.

Each month a member of staff chooses a film to screen, February's film was chosen by Assistant Operations Manager Rob Forbes:

"Shane Meadows’ fifth feature manages to be both hard-nosed and poignant, even when it’s tripping off its proverbials. The premise: Meadows’ co-conspirator and star of the show, Paddy Considine, returns to his old stomping ground – think a tatty Jack Carter enroute to a Rambo cosplay convention - to wreak savage, bloody revenge on smalltown ne’re-do-wells. Filmed and set in rural Derbyshire, you wouldn’t get this sort of s**thousery in Market Harborough."
