The Firm (1988)
My first viewing of Gary Oldman. This film really opened up the floodgates for films in this genre.
Oldman brilliantly plays Bexy in this football hooliganism film. His double life of being a real estate agent by day and a violent football hooligan by night and weekends really caused controversy upon its release. The BBC would not make these types of films today😂.
Phil Davis is brilliant as Yeti, not sure on the hair though😜. His battles with Bexy are brilliant. There are a few other recognisable faces in this drama including Steve Mcfadden for those Eastenders fans.
This film has been celebrated and condemned for its violent content. I haven't seen it for many years now. But my first viewing back in the day was a real eye opener. Gary Oldman, what an actor!!! 🤔
