Episode 175: Mike Leigh

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Our first remote cast in quite awhile but we had an incredible time talking over Skype about one of the all-time greatest British filmmakers, Mike Leigh. We are joined by returning guest Regina Linn who is also a very talented theater actor in their own right. The main reviews are <em>Life is Sweet</em> and <em>Another Year</em> but we also dive deep into his most acclaimed work, <em>Naked</em>. For What We Watched, there are discussions about Cameron Crowe, Six Feet Under, Tales From The Loop and Alex Garland’s DEVS. We all truly hope you are staying safe, strong and sheltered. Talk to you again in about a month!</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">00:00 - 13:43 - Patrick’s Announcement / Intro</span><span style= "font-weight: 400;"><br /></span><span style= "font-weight: 400;">13:44 - 14:43 - What We Watched Song</span><span style= "font-weight: 400;"><br /></span><span style="font-weight: 400;">14:44 - 01:08:48 - What We Watched This Week</span><span style= "font-weight: 400;"><br /></span><span style= "font-weight: 400;">01:08:49 - 01:09:51 - Director Song<br /> 01:09:52 - 01:55:14 - Mike Leigh / Life Is Sweet</span><span style= "font-weight: 400;"><br /></span><span style= "font-weight: 400;">01:55:15 - 03:17:00 - Another Year / Naked / Others</span><span style= "font-weight: 400;"><br /></span><span style= "font-weight: 400;">03:17:01 - 03:25:40 - Top 3 List / Outro</span><span style= "font-weight: 400;"><br /></span><span style= "font-weight: 400;"><br /></span><strong>Links:</strong><span style="font-weight: 400;"><br /> </span><a href= "https://letterboxd.com/patrickripoll/list/food-bank-fundraising-all-night-request-line/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Patrick’s Food Bank Fundraising Request Line</span></a><br /> <br /> <a href= "https://pandabearshape.com/2014/06/24/secrets-and-lies-1996-dir-mike-leigh/"> <span style="font-weight: 400;">Regina’s Essay On Secrets & Lies</span><span style= "font-weight: 400;"><br /></span><span style="font-weight: 400;"><br
