Guy Ritchie’s Revolver to premiere
Guy Ritchie will be putting on a brave face later as he attends the British premiere of his latest movie Revolver. The film has taken a beating by some critics for its dense plot, but the director is making no apologies for making a movie that challenges its audience.
He said: “You have to be careful not to try not to get in the trap of trying to please fans because fans ultimately want to be titillated and entertained and not given new challenges. I like having a market, but I hope fans can digest more than Snatch and Lock, Stock.”
The film explores the life of a con man who tries to work out if he’s the one being conned. Its message is that, ultimately, you only get smarter by playing a smarter opponent.
