Where's the Money, Ronnie?(1996)

Where's the Money, Ronnie? is Shane Meadows' debut short film, a stylish take on the unreliable narrator. Four men are interrogated by police following an armed robbery, each recounting a wildly different version of events. The film borrows its structure from Rashomon, layering contradictory testimonies to reveal how perspective warps truth, while its sharp dialogue and edgy tone echo Tarantino's influence. Meadows himself appears in the cast, adding an insider's energy to the proceedings. What emerges is a clever, darkly comic exploration of memory and culpability—where the truth remains elusive and every account rings partly true, partly false. The short announces Meadows as a filmmaker unafraid to play with narrative convention and audience expectation.
