Naked Q&A | Mike Leigh in Conversation

Mike Leigh in Conversation - Part 2: Episode 2
The second half of our season of live conversations with Mike Leigh and Gary Yershon continued with a screening and Q&A for Leigh's 1993 film Naked.
Johnny, (David Thewlis) is a frenetic and destructive outsider who tears through the lives of others like an emotional tornado. On the run from Manchester, he seeks sanctuary with his ex-girlfriend Louise (Lesley Sharp) in London, where he immediately targets her vulnerable housemate Sophie (Katrin Cartlidge) with his unique blend of predatory charm. From there he embarks on a nocturnal odyssey across the city, dragging other disaffected souls into his orbit as he spirals towards his own personal apocalypse. Mike Leigh’s Cannes-winning film is a masterful, controversial and totally unforgettable exploration of society in free-fall at the tail end of Thatcher’s Britain.
Recorded on 20th October 2022 at The Garden Cinema
39-41 Parker Street London WC2B 5PQ
