If you loved Iris, try The Children Act
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 Richard Eyre, and they both carry the bittersweet, tender mood tags, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Iris, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What The Children Act is
A High Court judge in marital freefall decides if a teen with cancer gets a transfusion despite his family’s faith. The judge weighs law against belief, the marriage against the bench. A quiet powerhouse carries the moral load.
