No not the 1942 musical with Betty Hutton..but Mike Leigh's latest slice of life affirming life...As a dedicated fan ,i went to see it when it started showing,in the U.K....I heard Leigh talking about it on the radio a week before and knew it would be right "up my street" ,Sally Hawkins,is fabulous and this is her first "leading role"(she was in "Vera Drake",loads of other things including good t.v. and radio ).. Her character may seem unbelievably positive, optimistic,and irritating , to some, but i know people like this,and she is credible as a primary school teacher... Leigh fans will not be dissapointed..the female/family banter is wonderfully funny and engaging,and these scenes, along with the "Flamenco" classes, are intelligent fun, going down a storm in the cinema.We know that there will be a strong counterpoint coming ,a rude awakening.. We get a totally unrealistic one that strikes a completely false note,manipulative and just a bit daft (reminicent of the excesses of "Naked")..but,leaving that aside,there is a "tour de force" of a performance from the superb Eddie Marsan ,as "Scott" the dysfunctional driving instructor..Breathing a sigh of relief ,,the key phrases ringing in your ears will be:Enra Ha! "MySpace!"(no not that one) and something like "cheer up it might never 'appen"...
