Dead Man’s Shoes, 2004. Directed by Shane Meadows. Shane Meadows’ 2004 film Dead Man’s Shoes continues the tradition set by those previously mentioned movies and is often cited as one of the 21st century’s best examples of hardened British filmmaking, although it isn’t as quotable. Dead Man’s Shoes may get nastier and more graphically violent after that scene, but it never gets as intense or threatening. Flickering Myth Rating – Film: ★ ★ ★ ★ / Movie: ★ ★ ★ ★Chris Ward
