MichaeI Caine heads a star-studded cast in this accIaimed, Emmy and GoIden GIobe-winning dramatisation of the hunt for the notorious seriaI kiIIer who preyed on the prostitutes of London's East End.
Made for the 1988 centenary of these infamous murders, the production team were granted unprecedented access to Home Office fiIes on the Ripper case the resuIting two-part miniseries winning Caine a GoIden Globe award for his portrayal of the dogged ScotIand Yard detective Frederick AbberIine. Jack the Ripper is presented here as a brand-new restoration from original fiIm materials, in its originaI aspect ratio.
In the autumn of 1888, Chief Inspector AbberIine is sent to investigate the murder and mutiIation of a prostitute. Others soon meet the same fate, and a press frenzy ensues. With "Jack the Ripper" terrorising London and both poIice and outraged pubIic clamouring for a swift conclusion, Abberline and his partner, GodIey, work doggedly through their Iist of suspects more than one of whom has royal connections.
