Default Long Good Friday
Hi everyone. New to this game. Many years ago I watched the Long Good Friday with Bob Hoskins. I believe that this was the fore runner to many of the English Gangster type movies. However, I believe that Pierce Brosnan makes an appearance but does not have a speaking part. Any ideas....

Yes, he does. He's one of the terrorists in the swimming pool scene and is also the one who has the gun trained on Harold in the car as it pulls away from The Savoy in the final scene.

You can get the single disc DVD for £2:99 delivered from W H Smith here: The Long Good Friday Bob Hoskins | WHSmith or the 2 disc edition for £5:89 from Sendit here:

Pierce Brosnan has 2 scenes (billed as 1st Irishman ) one of him in the shower (which I think he says one line "Hi" ) and of course the end scene,Hoskins and Brosnan never met at all for that scene as it was filmed separately.
There's a lot of dignity in that, isn't there? Going out like a raspberry ripple.
