Hi Folks:

This is essentially a 5 hour British film broken into three parts:
Red Riding: 1974
Red Riding: 1980
Red Riding: 1983

I saw each part twice. First, at the Mostly British Film Festival in San Francisco, and a second time when it had its regular run.

The film centers on a string of murders from circa 1972-1983 and the police corruption during this period. Each of the films was very interesting and compelling. Part one is difficult to understand because of the heavy yorkshire accents. Part 1 is has a film noir-ish feel to is. It will likely be out on DVD soon. Has anyone else seen it/them?

Mike
