Beck - The Series: Volume 1 (UK-import)
Based on the characters of the hugely popular Martin Beck detective series of novels by Swedish husband-and-wife writers Maj Sjöwall and Per Wahlöö, Beck - The Series sees the much-loved detective brought to life on the small screen. This collection of five feature-length films sees detective Martin Beck investigating a serial killer who buries his victims alive, the shocking death of a young woman found strangled in a hotel room, a gangster kingpin executed by a sniper in front of his family, a terrorist attack and a suspicious hospital death which sourly turns out to be premeditated murder. Starring Peter Haber (The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo) as Beck and Mikael Persbrandt (The Hobbit: The Desolation Of Smaug, Salvation, The Hypnotist) as the charismatic Gunvald Larsson, the drama's combination of complex woven details of police procedure and beautifully realised characters combined with twisting, masterful storylines, has ensured that the award-winning series has won fans and acclaim all around the world.
