The Limehouse Golem (cert 15)
From the novel by Peter Ackroyd. In high Victorian London, a newly promoted police inspector, John Kildare, (originally to have been Alan Rickman, now played by Bill Nighy) is charged with investigating a gruesome series of Ripper-type killings in the East End, attributed to a terrifying “golem”, a monster from Judaic mythology. Kildare narrows down the possible candidates to 4: Karl Marx, George Gissing, the cross-dressing music-hall star Dan Leno, and an unsuccessful playwright and journalist called John Cree, who is dead, apparently poisoned by his wife Lizzie. As Lizzie stands to hang for the murder, Kildare works furiously to prove her innocence. formal dresses under 100
