Life is Sweet (Mike Leigh, 1991)

January 22, 2009

opening scene:

reel: “Offbeat, low-key, slowly unfolding ensemble black comedy paints slice-of-life portrait of working-class British family. Critics raved. Fans of vibrant, character-driven vignettes will enjoy this bittersweet, realistically gritty, thought-provoking art-house sleeper.”
