Focusing on these key issues, British Crime Film examines strategies used by film makers in order to address more radical notions of society's decline. Spanning post-war crime cinema, from Green for Danger to Get Carter, from The Lady Killers to Layer Cake, from The Long Good Friday to Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, British Crime Film contextualizes the movies and identifies important and neglected works which will delight and intrigue film fans of this well-loved genre."--Publisher's website. 0aCrime filmszGreat BritainxHistory and criticism.9203168 0aMotion picturesxSocial aspectszGreat Britain.9203169  a = C.1 SDU  cGBE2lcc  c106743d106743  00102lcc406PN19959 F732 B2012708CGB9279656aSDUbSDUcGEN3d2025-08-28e2l0oPN1995.9 F732 B 2012p1000363125r2025-08-28 00:00:00tC.1w2025-08-28yGBE
