Simon Puritan is a hard-drinking, washed-out writer on the road to self-destruction, eking out a living conning the grieving with 'psychic' readings. His path takes an interesting turn one night when a shadowy disfigured man stops him from being killed by an on-coming train. The figure disappears, but re-emerges as a badly burned and horrendously disfigured Jonathan Grey, who visits Puritan at his home. Grey is a well-spoken, intimidating presence who, it seems, has his own secret agenda for Puritan, and opens up a world of devious intrigue.
Haunting, atmospheric and filled with mystery, 'Puritan' is a stunning noir thriller that will have you guessing till the last moment.
Starring Nick Moran, Georgina Rylance, David Soul and Ralph Brown
"A supreme object lesson in how to make the most out of what you have, genius Peter Ellmore’s shadowy photography gives a sumptuous high-gloss brilliance. Puritan has one of the best and most captivating looks to be seen in current genre cinema."
