Synopsis:

Small Time (1996)
Acclaimed British director Shane Meadows (Dead Man s Shoes, This is England) assured debut feature is a tale of petty crime in the suburbs of Nottingham which stars Meadows himself as Jumbo, leader of a ragtag band of small time crooks. Featuring energetic handheld camera work, brilliant comic dialogue and a host of ironic film references Small Time clearly reveals Meadow s flair for larger-than-life characters and ability to extract accomplished, semi-improvised performances from talented non-professionals.

Where s the Money Ronnie? (1996)
The Nottingham-based filmmaker s short film homage to Kurosawa's Rashamon, which offers four different views of a robbery. Meadows' pacy, black and white, short crime caper comedy served as an assured calling card that led the director to the making of Small Time. The bewildering plot features different perspectives on the same crime scene given in flashbacks during a set of police interviews by the four main protagonists (all sporting plasters on their noses) - hysterical Benny Bould (Mat Hand), charged with suspicion of armed robbery, meek Jock Spoono (James Hynd), charged with suspicion of armed robbery, gang member Zico Marzeti (Paul Anderson), charged with suspicion of theft and GBH, and debt collector Ronnie (Shane Meadows) charged with murder.
