Based on the 1938 British noir classic by Graham Greene, Rowan Joffe's BRIGHTON ROCK is set in the mods and rockers era of the 60s. It charts the the headlong fall of Pinkie (Sam Riley CONTROL), a razor-wielding disadvantaged teenager hell bent on clawing his way up through the ranks of organised crime. At the heart of the story is Pinkie's relationship with Rose (Andrea Riseborough NEVER LET ME GO), an apparently innocent young waitress who stumbles on evidence linking Pinkie and his gang to a revenge killing.
