Get Carter is a 1971 British crime film directed by Mike Hodges and starring Michael Caine as Jack Carter, a prominent London Gangster who returns to his hometown of Newcastle, Northern England, to find out who killed his brother.A deliberate deconstruction of the gangster film genre, it has nonetheless come to be regarded as a classic in said film genre, and even in British cinema as a whole. Caine himself was determined to avert the feel-good or comedy aspects of The Caper style gangster movie (best seen in The Italian Job) in favour of a Darker and Edgier gritty realism.The film was remade twice in the USA, first in 1972 as Hit Man (a blaxploitation film with Bernie Casey and Pam Grier), then as Get Carter (with Sylvester Stallone and Caine in a small role) in 2000. | |

Dirty Coward | |
| Get Carter (1971) / int_1235f055 | comment |
Dirty Coward: Albert Swift. He is the man who has sex with Doreen in the porn film and supplies the whisky that contributes to Frank Carter's death. When Jack arrives in Newcastle, Albert avoids him until Jack finally confronts him in the bookies. As such, Albert pitifully pleads for his life. Peter the Dutchman also qualifies. During the gunfight on the ferry, Peter is blasting at Carter with a shotgun. However, when an unarmed Peter climbs up the ladder only to be confronted by Carter pointing his pistol at him, Peter immediately screams "don't!" at Carter. Carter of course, shoots him dead. Cliff Brumby is another. Rather than go to the police with the evidence of the porn film, Brumby shows it to Frank Carter in the hope that Frank would go to the police. This ends up getting Frank killed by Kinnear's gang. Carter is quick to call Brumby out for it as he beats him to death. | |

Adaptational Sexuality: Peter the Dutchman is a misogynistic homosexual in the book. These elements were not emphasised in the film, although the character is flamboyant and "camp". Interestingly, his actor, Tony Beckley, had appeared alongside Caine in The Italian Job two years previously, playing an exceedingly camp (and possibly gay) gangster called Camp Freddie. | |

One-Book Author | |
| Get Carter (1971) / int_5e032315 | comment |
One-Book Author: Carl Howard, who played J, the sniper who kills Carter at the end. He is only identified by the initial on his ring, in his only film role, and an appropriate mystery surrounds his real identity. His name does not appear on the credits of some prints. Mike Hodges explained that Howard was an extra on his TV film, Rumour, and the director gave him a line to say, but another extra was wrongly credited. Hodges promised he would make it up to him and cast him in Carter, but his name was missed off some of the original prints. When the film credits were printed in the Radio Times and TV Times Howard was also trimmed. Hodges said in 2002 "Carl and credits don't seem destined for each other". | |

Spared by the Adaptation | |
| Get Carter (1971) / int_7453bc5b | comment |
Spared by the Adaptation: The book ends with Carter dying from a stab wound, leaving his fate ambiguous. In fact, Lewis wrote two sequel novels - Jack Carter's Law and Jack Carter and the Mafia Pigeon. The 1971 film ends with him getting shot in the head by a sniper. | |

Adaptation Explanation Extrication | |
| Get Carter (1971) / int_794f3589 | comment |
Adaptation Explanation Extrication: Carter's shotgun has greater significance in the book, as it symbolises family ties and Carter's memories of more innocent times hunting with his brother. The book delves into the backstory involving Carter and Eric Paice, revealing that they were rival gangsters in London. Albert Swift was a delinquent gang leader. One particular reason why Carter hates Paice so much is his abusive treatment of his lover Anna (Audrey in the book). | |

Shout-Out: There's a Zulu shield hung up on Kinnear's wall, a reference to Caine's starring role in the film Zulu. Carter reads Farewell, My Lovely on the train. Ironically, one of the contemporary criticisms of the movie was that the murder mystery plot was too complex, the same criticism levelled at a lot of Chandler's stories. | |

Hypocrite | |
| Get Carter (1971) / int_d52d28b6 | comment |
Hypocrite: Jack is quick to denounce Brumby's daughter as being promiscuous as he kills him and claims that Doreen "can't get away" with being in the porn film, yet Jack has no qualms in setting himself on his boss' wife and his rival mobster's girlfriend as the other man in two triangles. It's also not determined if Doreen feels that she was raped as she doesn't show that she's hiding anything from Jack throughout the film, and it's unknown if Jack confronts or consoles her about the film, as he has quite a lot of time to do so in between the gunfight on the boat and killing Margaret. | |

Screw This, I'm Outta Here | |
| Get Carter (1971) / int_d9cf40fa | comment |
Screw This, I'm Outta Here: Albert tries to do this trope by reaching the high double-gate at the end, only to find out that it's locked and tries to climb it. Carter subverts it by easily pulling him out. | |

Contrived Coincidence | |
| Get Carter (1971) / int_dc579c91 | comment |
Contrived Coincidence: Carter and J share a compartment together on the opening train journey. It's awfully convenient that Glenda has a copy of the porn film set up on a projector by her bed, and that she is keen for Carter to share her bed. | |

Chekhov's Gunman: J, the assassin, turns out to be Kinnear's hitman. He himself appears earlier on in the opening scene, and later kills Carter himself at the end. | |

Television Geography: A foot chase has Carter chasing Paice from Blythe Staithes (in the county of Northumberland) onto the beach at Blackhall Rocks (in the County of Durham), a mere 35 miles farther south. The scene is the climax of the film. | |

Brain Bleach | |
| Get Carter (1971) / int_e7fd5cdc | comment |
Brain Bleach: Carter accidentally discovers that his niece — who is quite possibly his daughter — was cajoled into porn, when he idly turns on a projector in the house of a local gangster's moll. As the film runs, tears well in his eyes; he takes his mind off this by embarking on an orgy of revenge. | |

Silent Credits: This 1970s gangster flick ends with Jack Carter himself getting shot on a remote beach by an assassin after Jack got his revenge on his brother's killer, followed by ending credits with the only sounds being the waves crashing on the shoreline. | |
