God, this is a gorgeous film to look at, sumptuous, with depth, the dark corners of candlelit interiors make the beautiful costumes and make-up sing.

One of the things I particularly enjoyed was its authenticity. The performances feel natural, the relationships believable, and there’s a sincerity running throughout that never feels forced.
BFI have released another great film and this title truly deserves to be in everyone’s collection, especially in this restored 4K UHD Blu-ray presentation.
I suppose the main theme is toxic masculinity, and rather than it just being about what you think toxic masculinity is, it explores other types of toxicity in men.
While Nolan’s film is of course, brilliant, it’s not as sexually fraught as this original version.
Hell or High water is just one of those films…a western/crime that is a true classic
If you want to watch a heart wrenching story of real depth, chuck away the wife’s copy of The Notebook and make her watch this. I defy anyone not to shed a tear on Brighton Pier.
