Harry Brown (2009) Michael Caine Emily Mortimer David Bradley Liam Cunningham
In England, retired Royal Marine Harry Brown (Caine) spends his lonely life between the hospital, where his beloved wife is terminally ill, and playing chess with his only friend Leonard Attwell (Bradley) in the Barge pub owned by Sid Rourke (Cunningham). After the death of Kath, Len tells his grieving friend that the local gang is harassing him and he is carrying an old bayonet for selfdefense; the widower suggests him to go to the police. When Len is beaten, then stabbed to death in an underground passage, Inspector Alice Frampton (Mortimer) and her partner are sent to investigate. They pay Harry a visit but don t have good news; the police have not found any other evidence, other than the bayonet, in order to arrest the hoodlums. This mean that should the case go to trial the gang would claim selfdefense. Harry Brown sees that justice will not be granted and decides to take matters into his own hands.
