IMAGE ENTERTAINMENT PRESENTS A STORY OF VENGEANCE SERVED COLD-HEARTED
“Rhythmically Aggressive” - The Village Voice
Chatsworth, CA – A man is a world of contradictions: loving, but brutal when that love is threatened. From the writers of Sexy Beast and fresh from its critically acclaimed theatrical engagement, Image Entertainment presents the gripping thriller 44 Inch Chest, premiering on DVD and Blu-ray™ April 20th, 2010. With a veritable “who’s who” cast of contemporary British cinema, 44 Inch Chest will be available with an SRP of $27.98 for the DVD and $35.98 for the Blu-ray. Pre-book is March 23rd. In addition, the film will be available via digital download.
In 44 Inch Chest, Colin Diamond (Ray Winstone, Edge of Darkness, The Departed, Sexy Beast) has just learned of his wife’s (Joanne Whalley, Willow, “The Virgin Queen”) infidelity. With the help of his friends – a motley crew of ex-thugs and thug hopefuls - he kidnaps his wife’s lover. Soon, a kangaroo court is in session, and “Loverboy’s” (Melvil Poupaud) life hangs in the balance. Or as one of Colin’s mates comments: “You're in the worst possible place a man could find himself.”
Directed by Malcolm Venville, 44 Inch Chest features a sterling supporting cast of legendary actors, including two-time Academy Award® nominee John Hurt (Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, The Elephant Man), Golden Globe® winner Ian McShane (HBO’s “Deadwood”), two-time Academy Award® nominee Tom Wilkinson (Michael Clayton, Rock n Rolla) and Emmy-nominee Stephen Dillane (“John Adams,” The Hours).
Bonus features on 44 Inch Chest DVD and Blu-ray™ include:

Critical acclaim includes such accolades as “glorious performances from an ace cast” (Variety), “riveting” (WBAI Radio NY), and “splendid, nuanced performances” (Los Angeles Times.)
Shocking, profane and teeming with denizens of the London underworld, 44 Inch Chest is a bloody good stroll around the breadth of the masculine ego.
