If you loved All or Nothing, try Vera Drake
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by Mike Leigh, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to All or Nothing, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Vera Drake is
A wartime nurse secretly helps women end pregnancies in 1950s London. Her compassion spirals into legal ruin when society turns against her. Mike Leigh’s quiet tragedy rests on Imelda Staunton’s bruised humanity.
