#14. Happy-Go-Lucky
Director/Writer: Mike Leigh
Producers: Simon Channing-Williams (The Constant Gardener)
Distributor: Miramax
The Gist: Described as an improvised modern-day comedy set in London, Sally Hawkins stars as a teacher with an unstoppably sunny disposition. This tracks the jaded but electric Johnny (David Thewlis) on his odyssey through London.
Fact: This is a third time that Hawkins works with Leigh.
See It: It will be a new change of scenery for Leigh fans – this is a comedy and has nothing to do with Kitchen Sink films. Hawkins might be dark horse pick for Best Actress.
Release Date/Status?: With a most recent stop at TIFF, this is going to be released on October 10th.
