I’m two episodes in to Guy Richie’s “The Gentlemen” on Netflix, and if it manages to keep the quality up for the full 8 episodes it could go down as the best thing he’s done.I just downloaded The Gentlemen, waiting to start it until we finish "Monsieur Spade".
The second son of an English Duke returns home from his post as a NATO peacekeeper to his father’s deathbed. At the reading of the will everyone is surprised to learn that the old Duke did not leave everything to the worthless, coke-sniffing eldest son, but to the more even-keeled second.
The new Duke immediately has to deal with three things: an illiquid estate, his brother’s 8 million pound debt to a group of bible-thumping gangsters…and the little matter of his dad’s partnership with a marijuana manufacturing and distribution business that is operating underneath the family estate. Hilarity and violence ensues, as is usually the case in a Richie project. Originally Posted by TinMan
