Rarely has the criminal underworld been so realistically portrayed as in this 1971 masterpiece. Shot on location, resulting in a devastatingly authentic snapshot of life in the north east of England, Get Carterremains arguably the grittiest and greatest of all British crime films. Restored in 4K from the original camera negative by the BFI, and approved by director Mike Hodges, Get Carter is back, and looking and sounding better than ever.
After the sell-out success of our Get Carter 4k Ultra HD Limited Edition, don't miss out on this new Standard Edition!
