Red Riding

Tonight, 9pm, Channel 4, the first of three film adaptations of David Peace's incredible Red Riding Quartet (yes, three films, although there were four novels). A review of the four original novels is being constructed as we speak. The four novels are absolutely incredible, if emotionally exhausting to read, and the films should deservedly find them a whole new readership. The next two films will be shown over the next two weeks on Thursday at 9pm.

In the meantime, the official channel 4 website is at www.redriding.channel4.com and the trailer is embedded below:
