SHALLOW
GRAVE
With Ewan McGregor, Kerry Fox, Christopher Eccleston, Ken Scott, Keith Allen Directed by Danny Boyle This admirable mid-90s debut effort by the team who gave us Trainspotting utilizes mystery, noir and suspense standards to great effect. A group of three housemates get an extra lodger, but find him mysteriously dead in his room - and with him an obscene stash of dosh. Utilizing great suspense & tension with innovative photography, greed and mistrust soon has the three friends turning on each other (on top of the fact that the money's owners are looking for it). This was also McGregor's kick-start to stardom. 4 / B - PB 1 2 3 4 5 6 A - B - C |
