Red Riding: 1980
The second film in the trilogy is the leanest and most focused thanks to the superb direction of James Marsh, who also delivers his best narrative film following his equally riveting documentary "Man on Wire." In the second film the worried home office sends an outsider to investigate the serial killing of several women that the Yorkshire Police failed to capture. There the investigator faces an hostile reception that leads him to uncover a web of deception that puts him in danger. Marsh gives the talented Paddy Considine (In America) an opportunity to shine as the lead and he delivers an outstanding performance that's one of the best in the entire trilogy and his career. The score of Dickon Hinchliffe stands out. Marsh and his excellent cast and crew make a film that stands on its own. YRCinema's coverage of upcoming releases.
