Graham Swift's Booker-winning story of old pals meeting to say good-bye to an old friend has made a marvelous film. 'Last Orders' is a tale of love, betrayal, and regret of things not done. Jack Dodds has left a final request or a 'last order' that his ashes be scattered in the ocean at a near-by coast town of Margate.
Jack, played by Michael Caine is a bigger than life character. He and his wife, Amy, played by Helen Mirren had their honeymoon at Margate. Courtenay (fair undertaker ... Read More

Friends. Not just ones that we occasionally see on the weekends, but those that buy you a round when they know you are blue, those that have lived their life right next to yours, those that will not quit even when you want them to forget about you - those are the friends that remain constantly in your mind.

Bob Hoskins is always terrific, as is David Hemmings, and of course Ray Winstone (as Jack and Amy's son, "Vince"). It is so nice to see Tom Courtenay (first acclaimed in "The Loneliness ... Read More

Fred Schepisi's film adaptation of Graham Swift's brisk novel about death and Britishness, or the death of Britishness, is a textbook case of how a bad script can stymie a brilliant cast.
The screen comes alive whenever Michael Caine's on it, even when he's in a hospital bed. But he's never on for more than a few minutes before a flashback sweeps you back to his disturbing younger double, or shifts to one of his four mates, all of whom have stories and flashbacks of their own that need to be crammed ...
