Marco de la O Herodes
If you're into character-driven crime dramas with dark undertones and moral complexity, "The Gentleman" might hook you with its tale of revenge, regret, and redemption. The film leans into its noir DNA while presenting a slow-burning story of an ex-soldier's descent into violence. Ron Perlman’s brooding performance adds gravitas to a story that blends emotion with brutality.
The film was shot in just 32 days in Andalusia, Spain, using real streets and old warehouses for authenticity. Ron Perlman reportedly learned Spanish phonetically for key dialogue scenes, and the role of Theo was written specifically with him in mind after Beristain saw his performance in Sons of Anarchy.
Aging ex-soldier Theo meets weekly with prostitute Olga to reminisce. After Olga's murder, Theo seeks bloody revenge, attracting attention of alcoholic cop Iborra and hitman Herodes.
