Please note this is a region 2 DVD and will require a region 2 (Europe) or region Free DVD Player in order to play. Loosely adapted from Alan Clarke's 1989 classic TV film, Nick Love's The Firm is set earlier in the '80s and retells a similar story to the original - but from a different character's point of view. The film centres on Dom, a young wannabe football casual, who gets drawn into the charismatic but dangerous world of the firm's top boy, Bex. Accepted for his fast mouth and sense of humour, Dom soon becomes one of the boys. But as Bex and his gang clash with rival firms accross the country and the violence spirals out of control, Dom realises he wants out - until he learns it's not that easy to simply walk away. Humourous, heart warming and set to a killer jazz funk 80's soundtrack, The Firm is a classic coming of age story set amongst one of England's most revered tribes.

Gritty coming-of-age drama set in the early 1980s about a young man who joins a 'firm' of football hooligans. The film, a big screen remake of a 1988 TV movie which starred Gary Oldman, follows Dom (Calum McNab) as he gains acceptance into a local firm of casuals. But when he witnesses what the firm's main man Bex (Paul Anderson) is capable of, and comprehends the extent of the violence he finds himself involved in, Dom decides it's time to get out. This, however, proves to be more difficult than he could have imagined.
