Filmbar70 returns to the fray on Wednesday the 20th of March at the Roxy Bar & Screen with a screening of the '72 Brit crime classic 'Sitting Target'.

An amazing line-up of Oliver Reed, Ian 'Lovejoy' McShane, Edward 'Equalizer' Woodward and Bond girl Jill St. John assemble for a stylish and gritty gangster caper hewn from the concrete heart of South London. Watch out for cameos from Freddie Jones, Frank Finlay and June 'Dot Cotton' Brown. A rarely seen but highly regarded tale of revenge, 'Sitting Target' is an experience in Brit action that even gives 'Get Carter' a run for its money.
We'll also be furnishing you with an assortment of themed retro trailers and ads, and will be sharing our fave Brit gangster flicks of the '70s. And, of course. Mr El Diabolik and his World of Psychotronic Soundtracks will be on hand to spin platters of hard-boiled tunage guaranteed to keep you incarcerated.
So join us and celebrate British cinema and London on screen as we take aim with 'Sitting Target'...

But when he finds that she is pregnant with another man's child, he plans an escape with fellow convict Birdy Williams (Ian McShane) and vows to hunt her down. Encased in a high-rise block, Pat has one chance of survival -- the protection of stoic Inspector Milton (Edward Woodward). And so, in the wilds of South London's concrete jungle, a hunt begins that will lead to blazing conflagrations and a betrayal of the deepest kind...
