I went and saw his new film, Another Year, last night, and it's absolutely incredible. Superficially nothing happens in it but every scene is suffused with such incredible emotion and accumulated wisdom and sadness just barely held in check. Leigh's been on an incredible run of form lately - Happy Go Lucky, in particular, is one of my favourite films of recent years, though I know not everyone liked it - and, quite simply, I don't think there's anyone else making films like his in the English language.
So that's my opinion. Thread start!
