Gumshoe

This brilliant feature debut from director Stephen Frears (My Beautiful Laundrette, Dangerous Liaisons, The Grifters) is an affectionate – and uniquely British – tribute to the Hollywood detective movies of the 1940s. Starring the great Albert Finney (Saturday Night and Sunday Morning, Murder on the Orient Express, Skyfall) as a Liverpool bingo caller who dreams of being a private eye and then finds himself suddenly contacted for what appears to be an actual piece of detective work.Product FeaturesHigh Definition remasterOriginal mono audioStephen Frears on 'Gumshoe' (2018, 18 mins): the acclaimed director discusses the film’s production historyNeville Smith on 'Gumshoe' (2018, 16 mins): the celebrated writer and actor discusses his work on the film, for which he won a Writers' Guild of Great Britain AwardProducer Michael Medwin on 'Gumshoe' (2018, 2 mins): a short interview with the actor and producerEditor Charles Rees on 'Gumshoe' (2018, 25 mins): an insightful interview with the film's original editorProduction Designer Michael Seymour on 'Gumshoe' (2018, 3 mins): a brief recollection of the film's productionActor Tom Kempinski on 'Gumshoe' (2018, 2 mins): the actor recalls the shooting of his scene with FinneyThe Burning (1968, 32 mins): Frears' haunting debut short film, made for Finney's production company, Memorial EnterprisesOriginal theatrical trailerVHS trailerImage gallery: on-set and promotional photographyNew and improved English subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearing
