TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

Despite playing his mother, Dame Emma Thompson is only two years older than Robert Carlyle.

This is Robert Carlyle's first movie as a director. He previously directed an episode of "Stargate Universe (2009)."

Near the beginning of this movie, Barney (Robert Carlyle) asks the three men in the barbers why "none of you want your hair to get cut...by me?" When he says "By me?" he flourishes his hands similar to Carlyle's character of Rumpelstiltskin from the TV series "Once Upon a Time (2011)" (2011 - 2018).

Ray Winstone plays a police officer investigating a serial killer barber. He previously played a serial killer barber as the title character in "Sweeney Todd (2006)."

Popular Dialogues

"Wullie: You look like a haunted tree."

"Barney: I'm 50 yrs old, got nothing to show for it. Live in this shitey flat/ not had a ride since Shakin Stephens had a number one, a mother who sticks her claws in like an old buzzard. A man by rights should live to reach his full potential and have a kick at the ball."
