“MONA LISA knows exactly what it is doing.”
—Roger Ebert

“In an era when movies about love almost always invariably devolve into formulaic affairs, Neil Jordan’s MONA LISA stands out as an often-surprising, multi-layered achievement.”
—Reelviews

“A masterpiece of British cinema undeniably worthy of its classical title.”
—CineVue

Neil Jordan’s MONA LISA is a British noir that navigates the gritty streets of London through the eyes of George, an ex-convict portrayed by Bob Hoskins. Hired as a chauffeur for a call girl (Cathy Tyson), George finds himself entangled in a dark underworld of crime and deceit. As their journey unfolds, the lines of morality become blurred.
