The Best Good Friday movie

The Long Good FridayThe Long Good Friday with Bob Hoskins, Helen Mirren and Pierce Brosnan playing an IRA hitman in his first movie appearance. Hoskins is brilliant as a London East End gangster trying to go legit. It's chock full of memorable dialogue mostly from his Cockney underlings. My favorite is when Hoskins is entertaining a big American Mafia on his private boat.

Underling 1 looking at the French chef doing the caterng:

"E's a right ol' ponce"

Underling 2

"Well, he's French i'n he"
