44 Inch Chest
Ray Winstone stars as Colin Diamond, a hard working guy who comes home one day to the woman he loves (perhaps too much) to be told she’s found someone else and doesn’t love him anymore. His reaction is…well, you have to wait until the end of the movie for that. Meanwhile, Diamond’s friends have done the only thing real friends can do in such a situation: They kidnap the wife’s young lover so Diamond can do the right thing, which in their minds means kill the guy. Those of you who read that and think 44 Inch Chest is an action-packed revenge movie may be disappointed with the actual film. There is some action in the movie – and it’s brutally intense --- but the vast majority of the film is taken up with Diamond and his friends talking about what happened and what they are going to do about it. And it’s brilliant.
