but I've yet to decide just why; perhaps there is too much focus on the near-mute "Mr. Braddock" ( Hurt ) or "Willy Parker" ( Stamp ) is just a bit too bright + philosophical... There is an imbalance somewhere, corrected, that would elevate this film to one of the true greats
Not Tim Roths debut; he was in a Mike Leigh film 2 years earlier than "Hit" ( which strangely enough, was Gary Oldmans debut film ) Not one of Leighs better efforts, either
Music from the Hit is ( mostly ) Eric Clapton, very salvageable!
