Face

Face (1997) is a British crime thriller you can watch online on iFILM, directed by Antonia Bird and starring Robert Carlyle, Ray Winstone, and Lena Headey.

Five Londoners rob a bank vault. The take is smaller than expected and the getaway barely holds. Ray, the crew's ringleader, figures the hard part is over — until one of his men shows up that night, beaten and empty-handed, claiming unknown attackers took the money. Nobody can verify it. Suspicion spreads through the group faster than any police investigation could.

What makes this picture work is Antonia Bird's refusal to glamorise her characters — they're broken people making a last bad bet, and the cast, including Damon Albarn of Blur in a supporting part, gives the film its particular London texture. Stream Face (1997) online on iFILM.
