This Is Personal: The Hunt for the Yorkshire Ripper (2000)
Another credit to the genius that is Alun Armstrong
8 July 2004 - 16 out of 18 users found this review helpful.
Accurately recreating the fear, desperation and hopelessness surrounding the Ripper hunt in northern England, the film takes you along on this terrible journey.
Alun Armstrong delivers yet another amazing performance, making you 'feel' for his character (George Oldfield) through every event of bad luck, bad judgment or bad mistakes.
Seeing Armstrong (as poor George) deteriorate through the prolonged investigation is simply sad and shocking. Perfect for the role, Armstrong's acting can not help but make you feel sorry for the task that faced the police during the time.
It isn't available to buy on DVD? Why not!!!
