''The Bank Job" (2008)
One of the bad men in this movie plays as a Trinidadian gangster, in a part of the movie he said that he will go back to Trinidad to liberate his brothers and sisters from the enslavement of the British colonist*. The man sound like he is a Jamaican and the Trinidad police in the ending looked like they from Jamaica or Africa, what ah rip off, it made our police look like some African militants. This movie is not yet in the theatre. Starring Jason Statham, the guy from the movie ''Crank'' and ''Warlord''. The first minute or two will look kinda shaky ;D other than that it's watchable. ENJOY!

executed: Abdul Malik
A ghastly murder in Trinidad that involved a British socialite and a self-anointed Black Power leader of the 1970s, among the main characters, is the backdrop of a new movie that opened in Britain at the weekend.
It stars Jason Statham, popular from his Transporter movies, and is about the real-life unsolved heist at a bank in London in 1971.
The film is titled Bank Job.
The heist is linked to the murder of former socialite Gale Benson, the daughter of British Member of Parliament Lord Leonard Plugge.
Abdul Malik, who anointed himself leader of the British Black Power movement in the 1970s before he was hanged for murder in Trinidad, is being depicted.
And the man who called himself Michael X will also have a fourth book published about his life this year.
The book is titled A Life in Black and White.
Malik, whose given name was Michael De Freitas, is portrayed as a man who captured sexually compromising photographs of Princess Margaret which he stores in a vault at the bank.
He was arrested and convicted under the Race Relations Act and returned to Trinidad in January 1971 to avoid being arrested for extortion.He started an agricultural commune in Arima.
It was there that police found two buried bodies, Joseph Skerritt, a member of Malick's group and Benson in 1972. She was buried alive.
In the movie Benson is portrayed as a British agent who was killed because of her investigations into the photographs of the Princess.
Malik was hanged in 1975 despite an international effort to stop the execution.

Deeks:
Yes, John and Yoko came to TT and spend time in Arima at Malik's place. During that time there use to have the National Arts and craft show in the old market. All kind of local things on display. Lots of creative stuff. Malik brought them downtown and if I remembered correctly John did buy a locally made guitar. Guardian or Express should have that in their archives.
