Plot Summary:
|
Compelling, complex, gripping and genuinely off-putting, THE RED RIDING TRILOGY is a breathtaking, neo-noir epic based on horrific, factual events and adapted an eye to the small screen by Tony Grisoni (FEAR AND LAOTHING IN LAS VEGAS, TIDELAND) from David Peace's series of groundbreaking novels. The Red Riding Trilogy follows controversial stories revolving around the manhunt for the unkind Yorkshire Ripper. After a failed crack to crack Speedy Roadway, a cynical news-hound returns to his homeland of Yorkshire and finds himself assigned to narrative on the case of a neighbourhood squeeze who has gone missing. But after her bizarrely mutilated centre is discovered, he is thrown into a sleaze infested, terrifying in every respect of corruption. As the killer's identity remains a murder story, savage events screw out of curb, spanning generations and leading to a shocking climax.

The three films (1974, 1980 and 1983) are directed by three remarkable filmmakers, Julian Jarrold (Enhancing JANE), James Marsh (Academy Awarding Title-holder 2009 for Confine ON WIRE) and Anand Tucker (HILARY AND JACKIE), and each boasts a fantastic British seek reject. Sean Bean (LORD OF THE RINGS) joins Mark Addy (THE FULL MONTY), Warren Clarke (A CLOCKWORK ORANGE), Paddy Considine (DEAD Irons'S SHOES), Andrew Garfield (House-servant A), Rebecca Hall (VICKY CRISTINA BARCELONA), David Morrissey (THE OTHER BOELYN Young lady) , Peter Mullan (TRAINSPOTTING) and Maxine Peake (TV's SHAMELESS).
