DVD: Mark Hammond's JOHNNY WAS

Here's a description of Johnny Was from the website of international sales agent Nordisk Film International Sales: "Johnny (Vinnie Jones), trying to escape a violent past in Ireland, hides out in Brixton, London, in the world's least-safe safe house, sandwiched between a drug den run by a Jamaican gangster (Eriq La Salle) and a pirate radio station belonging to a Rasta DJ (Lennox Lewis) .When Johnny's former comrade (Patrick Bergin) escapes from Brixton Prison determined to derail the Irish peace process, Johnny faces being dragged back into violence and away from his new love (Samantha Mumba). Johnny's actions ignite a simmering war on two fronts with his drug-dealing neighbor and his former boss Jimmy (Roger Daltrey). Johnny faces questions of race, morality, loyalty - and ultimately survival - played out against a great reggae sound track from legendary DJ-producer Adrian Sherwood."
