Where's the Money, Ronnie?

About This Movie

So, 'Where's the Money, Ronnie?' is this intriguing little debut from Shane Meadows, who also pops up in it. It’s got that gritty, raw vibe you’d expect from the early '90s UK scene. The whole Rashomon angle means you’re getting these conflicting stories about an armed robbery, which really plays with the truth theme. The pacing is sharp, keeping you hooked with those differing perspectives, and the performances have this authentic feel. It’s not flashy, but that’s part of its charm—you get this real sense of character through the conversations. Plus, Meadows’ style is already showing here, hinting at what he’d do later in his career. Definitely a unique piece for collectors interested in early indie cinema.

This short film is quite a rarity in the collecting world, especially given Meadows’ later success. It has seen limited releases, making original copies sought after by those who appreciate early indie works. The film's raw approach and distinct narrative style give it a unique place in the history of British cinema, appealing to collectors looking for deeper cuts from the 90s indie scene.
