Mesrine Parts 1 & 2 preview, Cameo Cinema

Early word today from Edinburgh's Cameo cinema via their Twitter feed that they're going to be screening parts one and two of the impressive new French thriller Mesrine, starring Vincent Cassel, on Thursday 6 August.

According to the tweet, there will be a "Very special preview double bill of MESRINE: PARTS 1&2 is screening at the Cameo on Thursday 6 August from 6.55pm. Tickets on sale tomorrow."

I thoroughly enjoyed Mesrine: Killer Instinct, the first part of the biopic based on real-life criminal Jacques Mesrine in the 1960s and 70s, saying in my review that it's "a throwback to the thrillers of old, owing Hollywood something in its desire to attract both action and drama devotees but that’s no bad thing when the quality is this high."

The first film is out in the UK on Friday 7 August, while part two, Mesrine: Public Enemy Number One is due out on 28 August, making this a great way to watch the film. Here's a look at the trailer:
