Overview

The directorial debut of Jonathan Glazer (Under the Skin, The Zone of Interest), Sexy Beast stars Ray Winstone in an unforgettable performance as ex-con Gary "Gal" Dove. Comfortably retired in a villa on Spain's Costa del Sol with his adoring wife DeeDee (Amanda Redman), it would take a lot to coax Gal away from his poolside idyll. When old nemesis Don Logan (Ben Kingsley) comes knocking on Gal's door hell-bent on convincing him take on one last bank heist, it's the last thing Gal wants to hear. Finally forced back to London to do the job, things start to turn hairy as the heist reveals itself to be anything but simple.

Why See This Film

Punchy, stylish and full of witty retorts, Jonathan Glazer made a grand entrance to the international film scene with this unique beast of a debut. Gorgeously shot, with excellent turns from its cast (including an Oscar-nominated performance from Ben Kingsley as Don Logan), Sexy Beast is simply one of the great contemporary crime films, delivered with the utmost panache.
