Christie Malry's Own Double Entry
The Urge To Destroy Is Also The Urge To Create.
In this daring black comedy, working-class bank clerk Christie Malry (Nick Moran, Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels) transforms his drab life with the accounting principle that every debit must be balanced with a credit. From keying a car that nearly ran him down to terrorist acts, the indignant Malry avenges the imagined and real slights against him. Even as he falls in love with the overwhelmingly optimistic Carol, he continues the outrageous misadventures that soon spiral out of control. This adaptation from B.S. Johnson's cult novel is hailed as "genuinely original, brilliant, ambitious and wonderfully entertaining...one of the best British dramatic comedies since Billy Liar" by London's Independent and is sure to have viewers glued to their seats from its quirky, comical opening to its startling end.
