THE GREAT TRAIN ROBBERY

Trailer

From the acclaimed writer of the hit series Broadchurch (Chris Chibnall) come two ninety-minute films chronicling the true story of the 1963 Great Train Robbery. On August 8, 1963 Britain awakens to the news of the biggest robbery in the country's history -- the hijacking of a train 35 miles from its arrival in central London, leaving the country stunned and wanting to know who did it and how they managed to pull off such an audacious raid. The two films are: "A Robber's Tale," which traces the planning and execution of the crime under mastermind Bruce Reynolds (Luke Evans, Robin Hood), and "A Copper's Tale," which follows the manhunt for Britain's most-wanted criminals, led by the relentless DCS Tommy Butler (Oscar(R) winner Jim Broadbent, Moulin Rouge). Also starring: James Fox, James Wilby, Tim Pigott-Smith, Jack Roth, and Martin Compston. (2 EPS, 2013)
