Bleak Moments [Blu-ray]
Bleak Moments (Blu-ray)
Directed by Mike Leigh
Sylvia (Anne Raitt) leads a quiet life caring for her sister
Hilda (Sarah Stephenson) who has complex care needs. Their lonely
suburban existence is accentuated by a social awkwardness that detaches
them from the community and fuels a life of seclusion and despair.
Released in 1971 to critical acclaim, Mike Leigh's debut feature film
is a haunting study of social isolation. Uncompromising and deeply
affecting, the film introduced Leigh's unique and highly influential
natural style that he has continued to develop over a 50 year career.
A true landmark in the history of British film Bleak Moments
has been newly remastered by the BFI and is presented on Blu-ray for
the very first time.
