Description
Michael Caine is Jack Carter, the London gangland enforcer who returns to his hometown of Newcastle to investigate his brother’s death. Rarely has the criminal underworld been so realistically portrayed as in this 1971 masterpiece. Shot on location, resulting in a devastatingly authentic snapshot of life in the north east of England, Get Carter remains arguably the grittiest and greatest of all British crime films.
Newly restored in 4K from the original camera negative by the BFI, and approved by director Mike Hodges, Get Carter is back, and looking and sounding better than ever.
This edition features a new 4K UHD, along with a Blu-ray disc featuring new and archive extras.

Great price and service.
A bit expensive but that’s expected with imported items. Pleasantly surprised with the delivery. A small box and two layers of bubble wrap to prevent any damage. Nicely done!
