Resurrected Blu-ray
'Resurrected' Director: Paul Greengrass (1989) Indicator Limited Edition Blu-ray | HD remaster | Region Free
A disturbing and powerful true story of a British soldier injured and lost during the 1980s Falklands conflict. Presumed dead, he’s given full military honours; but on returning he’s treated with distrust and shame, and accused of desertion.
Starring David Thewlis (Naked) and featuring excellent performances from Rita Tushingham (A Taste of Honey, Doctor Zhivago) and Tom Bell (The L-Shaped Room, The Krays), Resurrected is an intense and provocative drama, a powerful cry against institutional violence and political indifference.
