Review of Get Carter (1971) by Terry W — 28 Nov 2009
Get Carter has a kind of intangible stylishness that makes it appealing when the subject matter is so unappealing. The Newcastle drizzle, the downmarket bed & breakfast lodgings, the cars, the multi-storey car park, the betting shop and the beach at the end are all so very un-Hollywood, this could only be a British film, and one which captures the era perfectly.
Michael Caine is at his best here.
