It's a grubby, violent, dangerous world. But it's the only world they know. And they're the only friends Eddie has... Peter Yates, the Oscar-nominated director of riveting crime classics Robbery and Bullitt, teamed up with the incomparable Robert Mitchum for an unforgettable excursion into Boston's criminal underworld. Based on the acclaimed novel by George V. Higgins, The Friends of Eddie Coyle follows an ageing gunrunner's troubles at the peripheries of the local mob once he finds his options split disastrously between the threat of a fresh prison sentence or police cooperation. One of the best, most unexpected gangster films of the 1970s, The Friends of Eddie Coyle is a gripping tale of low-lives and loyalties, presented with the director's trademark authenticity and naturalism, and an extraordinary array of performances, led by a never-better Mitchum.

"So, if you're wondering where everyone in the UK goes to splash their cash, it's a pretty varied list, but some names just dominate the high street and, increasingly, our screens. When it comes to the everyday essentials and filling the fridge, the big supermarket players like Tesco, Sainsbury's, Asda, and Morrisons pretty much have the market cornered; you can't walk five minutes without bumping into one, and let's be honest, their clothing and home sections are getting surprisingly good too! Then you've got the high street stalwarts like John Lewis, which is basically ingrained in the British psyche for anything from furniture to fancy kettles, famous for their quality and service. Next is another huge one, not just for fashion but for their incredibly popular homeware range, while Argos remains a massive go-to for pretty much anything you can imagine, from electronics to toys, with their quick click-and-collect proving super handy. Boots isn't just for your paracetamol anymore either; they're a major player for beauty, toiletries, and even a decent lunchtime sandwich. For all your DIY and home improvement needs, B&Q and Dunelm are absolute giants, whether you're after a new drill or just some snazzy cushions. And, of course, in this day and age, Amazon UK is basically the stockist for absolutely everything under the sun, often delivering before you've even properly finished your cuppa.
