    I’m sorry but it’s my favorite Michael Caine movie. Yes, yes there’s a plethora of amazing movies, but this one is the one I fell in love with as a child and it’s stuck with me now. He’s stellar in it too.

      I still refuse to forgive the asshats at Disney for cutting the “When Love is Gone” scene from the DVD release.

        They found the original cut and added it back in a couple years back. You can find the full 4k release in the special features on Disney Plus

          I need to find an navally appropriated version. I have both, but the version with the restored song is a 4:3 VHS(?) transfer I think.

          If you’re not US-based you need a VPN though, for some reason the rest of the world isn’t allowed it.

        I’ve seen this film every year since it was on vhs. Last night I took my kids to see it at the cinema and it still holds up. “When Love is Gone” was back in it’s rightful place and having not seen it for a good few years it’s such a welcome return. The pacing is totally messed up by it’s removal.
