The Fruit Machine (1988) was known as Wonderland in the United States.
The Fruit Machine is a British Film thriller directed by BAFTA-winner Philip Saville (The Life and Loves of a She-Devil, The Gospel of John, Metroland) about two bud gay teens running from an underworld assassin and the police. This was a film made by UK TV company Granada Productions; now known as ITV Productions.
Starring Tony Forsyth, Emile Charles, Bruce Payne and Robbie Coltrane in the role of "Annabelle".
The production has a growing cult following due primarily to its straight-forward portrayal of British gay youth and the rising careers of Coltrane, Payne, Saville and Hans Zimmer.
The film has had two DVD releases. In the UK on 16 July 2007 and on 9 April 2009, the German-based Pro-Fun Media released a Region 5 digitally-remastered edition in Anamorphic widescreen (1.66:1), including booklet and trailer. A North American Region 1 DVD version has still not materialised.
