Krátky popis
Hanif Kureishi's cinematic storytelling embraces a wide spectrum of
characters from all classes and nationalities, depicting them with
compassion, humour and relish, though never fighting shy of
controversy. This volume comprises four of Kureishi's screenplays.
My Beautiful Laundrette (1985)Omar is a restless young Asian man,
caring for his alcoholic father in the hustling London of the
mid-1980s.His uncle, a keen Thatcherite, offers Omar an
entrepreneurial opportunity to revamp a dingy laundrette, and
ambitious Omar rolls up his sleeves, enlisting the assistance of
his old school-friend Johnny, who has since fallen in with a gang
of neo-fascists. Omar and Johnny soon form an unlikely alliance
that leads to business success, as well as other, more intimate
surprises. Sammy and Rosie Get Laid (1987)1980s London, and Sammy
and Rosie share an 'open' marriage, strings of lovers, and a
bohemian existence amidst inner-city turmoil.Sammy's father, Rafi,
formerly a government minister in India, visits London as racial
tensions rise with the death of a woman in a police raid. Rafi
offers Sammy financial assistance if the couple will leave their
'war zone' behind them and produce grandchildren. But Rafi's own
shady past threatens to haunt him.London Kills Me (1991)A weekend
in the lives of homeless Clint and his pal Muffdiver, youthful
veterans of the streets of London, whose chief source of income

Hill. But what Clint wants more than anything else is a proper job,
and he's been promised a position as a waiter in a restaurant - on
the condition that he can come up with a pair of 'sensible' shoes.
