Indicactor/Powerhouse Films will reissue on Blu-ray Jack Gold's The Reckoning (1969), starring Nicol Williamson, Ann Bell, Rachel Roberts, Godfrey Quigley, and Lilita De Barros. The release will be available for purchase on April 25.
Official description: A ruthless business executive (an intense tour de force performance by leading man Nicol Williamson) returns home to his Liverpool roots to investigate his father's death. An unflinching exploration of the British class system, Jack Gold's penetrating, brutal drama stands alongside contemporary classics Up the Junction and Room at the Top, and pre-dates Get Carter by a year. Underrated and underexposed, The Reckoning may well be one of the most essential British films ever made.
