Nominated for 4 AFI Awards this "tough, no-nonsense modern thriller" (Sun Herald) stars Colin Friels (MALCOLM, GROUND ZERO) as Tom Stewart, an ambitious young journalist who stumbles across the most bizarre crime story of his career after digging up some facts that many would kill to have!
Stewart finds himself trapped in a dangerous world of obsession, illusion and multiple murder when he meets the violently unhinged Morris Martin (John Waters - ALL SAINTS, BREAKER MORANT), a widower who refuses to accept that his wife is dead, and is hunting down those he believes are hiding her.
"Directed with hard-edged efficiency and a meticulous attention to detail" (Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times), this Australian thriller boasts a top-notch cast (including Kerry Armstrong, Kim Gyngell and the great Bruno Lawrence), a cracking pace and a climax dripping with seat-edge suspense.
This DVD presents both the 4:3 version of Grievous Bodily Harm as televised, and, after exhaustive research, an uncut, widescreen version. This rough work print is, to our knowledge, the only widescreen print available.
