    The diabolical thriller Shallow Grave was the first film from director Danny Boyle, producer Andrew Macdonald, and screenwriter John Hodge (the smashing team behind Trainspotting). In it, three self-involved Edinburgh roommates—played by Kerry Fox, Christopher Eccleston, and Ewan McGregor, in his first starring role—take in a brooding boarder, and ...

    Shallow Gravereceives its Blu-ray debut in North America from Criterion, presented in its original aspect ratio of 1.85:1 on a dual-layer disc in a new 1080p/24hz transfer. I hadn’t actually seen the film since VHS and always recalled it as a fairly dull looking film despite the colours, so I was stunned by this new transfer—supervised by director ...

    • His advice on making a film for this low of a budget comes down to two things. Have a great script, and make it ninety minutes long.
    • The opening scenes in the woods and down the street were shot on a 10mm Zeiss lens, and Boyle loves its fish-eye quality. “I’ve tried to use it in virtually all the films I’ve done since then.”
    • Kerry Fox was their ace in the hole at the time as she was hot on the art house circuit and guaranteed them home video sales. The two other leads, Ewan McGregor and Christopher Eccleston, were nobodies who had to be screen-tested.
