The Limey Movie (1999): Where to watch and stream online

The Limey

Crime Drama Thriller

1999, Movie, 1h 29min

Steven Soderbergh’s stylish, fascinatingly fractured revenge thriller stars Terence Stamp as a British ex-con who, following his release from prison, heads to Los Angeles to investigate his daughter’s mysterious death, a journey that leads him into a showdown with a shady record producer (Peter Fonda). Likened by the director to “POINT BLANK and GET CARTER remade in the style of Alain Resnais,” THE LIMEY unfolds in a jagged, time-scrambling flashback structure that creates a dreamlike sense of disorientation and evokes the elusive nature of memory itself. It’s featured here with a famously argumentative commentary track in which screenwriter Lem Dobbs spars with Soderbergh over the choices the director made in bringing his script to the screen.

Terence Stamp, whose presence in any film is categorically always a pleasure, never a chore, plays Wilson, an ageing Cockney gangster who arrives, blinking, in sunny Los Angeles to avenge his daughter's death.
