Celebrate Bob Hoskins On This Thread

the music in the long good friday (by francis monkman of all ppl) is all overheated tangerine dream sequencers and it's GREBT

but partly it works bcz it's suddenly out of step with the times and so of course is bob's harold shand: that's what this unsettlingly prescient film's about -- the triumph of greedy corruption yes but actually history is powering off in a direction that doesn't include him (spoilers)
