Mona Lisa
Five years after The Long Good Friday, Bob Hoskins returned to the gangster genre, but his character George is a mere underling this time, a chauffeur hired by a mesmerisingly slimy gangland kingpin (Michael Caine) to transport a high-class prostitute (Cathy Tyson) from client to client. When she enlists his help in tracking down an old friend, George finds himself exploring a hellish underworld that he never imagined existed.Hoskins' immensely complex, subtle and moving performance hoovered up almost every Best Actor award going (Cannes, a BAFTA, a Golden Globe) and remains one of his greatest roles - a man sucked by circumstance into a life of crime but still righteous enough to seize the opportunity to do good when it presents itself.Director Neil Jordan (The Company of Wolves, The Crying Game) and co-writer David Leland (Made in Britain) achieve a perfect blend of hard-edged realism and unexpected fantasy, with the regular appearance of the Nat King Cole title song turning seedy British locations (Soho, Brighton) into something far more romantically evocative.Special Features:Brand new restoration sourced from the original camera negative, approved by director Neil Jordan and cinematographer Roger PrattHigh Definition (1080p) Blu-ray presentationOriginal uncompressed PCM mono 1.0 soundOptional English subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearingAudio commentary by Bob Hoskins and Neil JordanBrand new interviews with director Neil Jordan, writer David Leland and producer Stephen WoolleyOriginal TrailerReversible sleeve featuring original and newly commissioned artwork by Matthew Griffin
