Jack The Ripper: The Mini-Series
In 1888, a reign of murderous terror struck East London. To this day, the
case is unsolved. And the killer is known only by his infamous nickname. But the
truth may at last have been found. Based on breakthrough research at the time it
was made, this gripping “what if” suggests who wielded the surgically sharp
blade of death – and why his identity has been concealed. Michael Caine plays
Scotland Yard's Frederick Abberline and heads a large, flawless cast (including
Armand Assante and Jane Seymour) in a movie cloaked in mystery and wrapped in
period detail. Was the killer a noted doctor? A famed actor? A police
commissioner, clairvoyant or even the Crown Prince? Each raises
Abberline's suspicions. Each merits investigation in this gripping
whodunit.
