TVO's Saturday Night at the Movies, tonight, played Brit director Mike Leigh's 1996 emotionally draining opus, Secrets and Lies. It's a favourite Leigh film of mine, but admittedly it's not to all tastes: If you are susceptible to being sunk by "downer" movies, then stay away.
My joke for years has been "you have not seen a Mike Leigh film until you've seen Four Days in July". Some of you might want to keep the pharmaceuticals handy.

Secrets and Lies a downer? Seriously? This is a picnic in the grass compared to Naked.
Four words: "Four Days in July"
