George Steel's digital film was the transferred to celluloid and the re-digitised, leading to the inevitable question - why not just shoot it on film? It looks great, though:
And I was wondering about this amazing shot on Pontcysyllte Aquaduct whether it's actually a brilliant drone shot or CGI:
As revealed by Cillian Murphy here, it's neither: it's actually a non-CGI helicopter shot, which deserves George Steele's crew some kind of award, surely?
Oh yeah, as to the film. Tommy's become a recluse but his sister Sophie Rundle brings him back into action as his son Barry Keoghan, is behaving like a wrongun and discrediting the fine name of the Peaky Blinders. Tim Roth is trying to devalue English currency with millions of pounds of forgeries (a true history lesson). Steve Graham returns for the showdown and old friends Packy Lee, Ned Dennehy and Ian Peck are still around. With Rebecca Ferguson (the Dune films), Jay Lycurgo and Ruby Ashbourne Serkis.
...and it's likely to be something of an audience pleaser for fans of the show (despite that unexpected ending).
Mark Echersley cut it. He also cut The Aeronauts, Heart of Stone and Wild Rose, all three directed by Harper and shot by Steele, and Wild Rose, and also worked on War and Peace back in 2016 (Harper again - we should give it another watch).
