HARRY BROWN Q&A.

April 30th 2010 04:51

PRESENTS: HARRY BROWN audience Q&A with Oscar nominated director DANIEL BARBER Live from London.

Set in modern day Britain, HARRY BROWN is a powerful, character driven thriller starring two-time Academy Award winner Michael Caine in a tour-de-force performance opposite Emily Mortimer and Charlie Creed-Miles.


Harry Brown (Michael Caine) lives in a desolate council estate, his sickly wife lies dying in a local hospital and he spends most of his days alone, only occasionally venturing out to a local pub to play chess with his best friend. The times have changes in Harry Brown’s neighbourhood, drug dealers and gangsters have taken control of the decrepit complex and killings have become a way of life. Overburdened detectives Frampton (Emily Mortimer) and Hicock (Charlie Creed-Miles) are basically relegated to knocking on doors to inform parents that their children have been killed. But when Leonard (David Bradley) is murdered only feet from his own apartment, Harry, a former Royal Marine, uses his military training to take on the violent local thugs.

Directed by Academy Award nominee Daniel Barber (The Tonto Woman) from a screenplay written by Gary Young, one thing that this Taxi Driver meets A Clockwork Orange film shows for sure is that every man has a breaking point.
