LIFE IS SWEET (1990) - ♦♦♦♦

Directed by - Mike Leigh

Written by - Mike Leigh

Starring - Alison Steadman, Jim Broadbent, Timothy Spall

 

"Drama about a working class British family in the eighties. Mike Leigh’s film is driven by a great clever screenplay that feels so true in its portrayal of the everyday drama, which is sometimes nothing short of tragedy, in a realist way that is sometimes amusing in the simplest ways. The screenplay also inspires some wonderful performances by its cast."
