Christie Malrys Own Double Entry DVD Report


Print: Good - Sound: Good - Label: ILC Pictures - Year: 2001/2006 - Cover: OK - Format: 4:3 - Length: 1h49m/1h21m - Before: No - Again: Maybe - Price: £1 - Rating: 7/10.

Christie Malrys Own Double Entry is based on a novel by BS Johnson of the same name, but its release was delayed 5 years after the 911 attacks. Its a revenge fantasy of Christie Malry (Nick Moran), a resentful, humiliated, somewhat simple office wage-slave, who undergoes an epiphany in a lecture on accountancy, and decides to allocate a monetary value to every single act of, as he puts it, casualness, indifference and mass carelessness, and is to exact appropriate recompense.

As the debt grows, so do Malrys retributions, from disfiguring the paintwork of a Rolls-Royce to poisoning a substantial percentage of London.

Has this movie been cut because of the 911 attacks? The movie is almost 30 minutes shorter then the box says it is, and the end is very abrupt? Otherwise its a fantastic movie!

Here is a music video using clips from the movie...
