The Business
“This firm will blow you away.”
20051h 36mDir Nick Love6.1TMDB
During the '80s, a young man named Frankie dreams of escaping London's South East region, and his mother's thug of a boyfriend gives him just the opportunity. After beating up the abusive beau, Frankie runs off to Spain, where he lands a job delivering a package to the dapper Playboy Charlie, a gangster who takes him under his wing. Working as Charlie's driver, Frankie is immersed in a world of fast cars and pretty women -- but all the excess could be his undoing.

The scene we cut
Frankie arrives
"He walked on f***ing water." Frankie arrives in Spain.
The Costa del Sol really was full of British criminals in the eighties, after the extradition treaty with Spain lapsed in 1978 and stayed lapsed until 1985. Love shot it in the same towns they had lived in.
