Brighton Rock

The Graeme Green novel and nineteen forties [I think] film has recently been remade and shunted forward chronologically into the sixties. The book and original film are great, violence and love intermingled combine this with some classic mod on film and it might be worth investing your pennies to catch it at the cinema. Its not the story of mods its merely the setting for a gripping thriller but interesting enough to be worth a punt.










There are loads of clips all over YouTube filmed by amateurs of the mod scenes so check it out. Hopefully these splashes of amateur footage give a sense of the mod feel of the film, whilst the  official trailer identifies the plot in its setting. Right bacon and eggs and a brew here I come, two posts on a Saturday morning I'm bloomin' spoiling you.


* spot the classic mod film link up?
