Described by Stuart Hall as "one of the most riveting and important films produced by a black writer in recent years," My Beautiful Laundrette was a significant production for its director Stephen Frears and its writer Hanif Kureshi. Christine Geraghty considers it a crossover film: between television and cinema, realism and fantasy, and as an independent film targeting a popular audience. She deftly shows how it has remained an important and timely film in the 1990s and early 2000s, and her exploration of the film itself is an original and entertaining achievement.

Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. London in the 1980s. Omar is a clean-limbed young Pakistani with budding entrepreneurial instincts. He is encouraged by his ebullient uncle Nasser to take an interest in opening a laundrette. Omar's scholarly, left-wing papa disapproves, but Omar pitches in, even hiring an old schoolyard adversary - the charming hooligan Johnny - to help him out. Together they make a success, as well as a sexual relationship. But Omar quickly comes to realise the constrictions of the ties that bind, and the consequences of biting the hand that feeds. One of a hand-picked selection of some of the most popular and cult- worthy titles on Faber and Faber's extensive list of film scripts. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. Seller Inventory # 9780571202546
