#321 The Hit (1984) Dir. Stephen Frears

A great and low-key little crime movie. What I loved about it was how the whole film seemed built around this one little scenario that most mob-movies have but usually don’t even bother to touch upon. The movie is all about John Hurt and Tim Roth picking up Terence Stamp and taking him from A to B where they intend to kill him. Most movies would just get rid of the entire car ride with a cut but Frears made a whole movie about it.
