Re: RARA-AVIS: "Lock, Stock and Two Smoking..." or why I ha

Sat, 12 Sep 1998 17:10:58 -0400 (EDT) I saw a very positive review of Face in a British music magazine (the
same magazine that turned me on to Charles Higson and Lock, Stock) some
time ago and have been waiting for it ever since. So far, no luck. I
kept hoping that after the US success of Full Monty someone would
release it "starring Robert Carlyle of Full Monty and Trainspotting,"
but I guess they didn't figure the Full Monty crowd would go for a crime
movie. I'm still hoping it will at least be released here on video.

Speaking of Robert Carlyle, he was great in that Cracker episode where
he shaved his head and killed a Pakistani store-owner. And while I'm on
that subject, what does "Cracker" mean? Is it just a reference to Fitz
"cracking" cases? If so, what a lame title, is there some slang meaning
this ignorant Yank doesn't know?
