Jack Irish

A couple of interesting TV movies came out of Australia last year, with Guy Pearce playing the title role of Jack Irish in Black Tide and Bad Debts, based on novels by Peter Temple.

Not exactly the same tone as Jesse Stone, but for me they seemed to scratch the same itch. They're making a couple more. Worth looking out for.

  1. I'm intrigued. Is there any news about a DVD release of these films, or U.S. distribution of any sort?

  2. The Australian DVD is already on the market, the UK DVD comes out at the end of January... if your player isn't multiregional, I imagine that a US DVD won't be far behind.
