we have mr bean thats better than most of that list

i was thinking the other day though no one does better gangster movies than us. yet we never do a big one

bean? awful movie, tv series had some potential but lost all subtlety
you relaly think we do the best gangster movies>? you have got to be joking
Godfather, goodfellas, king of new york, the departed, casino, once upon a time in america, al capone, public enemy, the untouchables , angels with dirty faces , etc etc

what have we got ? get carter and long good friday?

or tv series they got sopranos weve got? eastenders lol..were a joke

all our gangster movies consist of is meathead cockneys who all look and sound like grant mitchell with absolutely no charisma , no intelligence , etc

the american ganster movies are complex rich multi layered, with incredibly rich brilliantly drawn out characters....brit gangster films seem to think all you need to be a gansgter boss is a gun or a knife.....a gangster boss of serious wealth must also possess tremendous charisma, emotional intelligence, he must be respected and feared by all

we havent got a clue how to make anything other than narrow predictable parochial little englander gangster films though no one outside the bowbells would want to see
