For the first time on Blu-ray…<\/p>\n

From Stephen Woolley, producer of Mona Lisa<\/em>, The Crying Game,<\/em> Carol<\/em> and Living, <\/em>and the late David Leland, co-writer of Mona Lisa<\/em> and director of Wish You Were Here<\/em>, comes a no-holds-barred adaptation of William McIlvanney\u2019s gritty novel The Big Man<\/em>, starring a pre-Schindler\u2019s List<\/em> Liam Neeson (Taken<\/em>), Joanne Whalley-Kilmer (Scandal, Willow<\/em>), Billy Connolly (in his first major film role), Oscar nominee Ian Bannen (Hope & Glory, Waking Ned<\/em>), Hugh Grant (Lair of the White Worm<\/em>) and Peter Mullan (Ozark<\/em>). Neeson gives an extraordinary performance as Danny Scoular, an unemployed miner encouraged by his best mate (Connolly) to compete in a bare-knuckle boxing match staged by ruthless mobster Matt Mason (Bannen), against the wishes of his wife (Whalley-Kilmer). Scoular soon discovers, however, that there is more to the fight than meets the eye \u2013 and finds himself among the denizens of a criminal underworld lurking beneath a polished, sophisticated upper-middle class fa\u00e7ade.<\/p>\n

Restored in the UK and presented on HD Blu-ray for the first time, The Big Man<\/em> (aka Crossing the Line<\/em>) also features a memorable score by legendary composer Ennio Morricone.<\/p>\n
