Mike Leigh

Or am I thinking of Barney Miller... I think I'll have a lie down...

The only one of his movies I've seen right through was Naked which was a decent movie if a little bleak .

If you like Mike Leigh , Im assuming you like Ken Loach Orgasmaddict ? He's made some great movies .

Ken loach is the man behind the films "wind that shakes the barley" and "land and freedom".

really like ken Loach too- Kes, My name is Joe, Land and Freedom etc.
i can see why your fan MR Slim - waving a giant fist in the air for the proletariat

Naked was fantastic film and very much ahead of its time, long rants about barcodes, id cards and the whole big brother lark.....must have another look at it.

Spike lee is another pretty good director unfortunately Hollywood got their grubby mits into him, still manages to knock out the odd decent movie though.

Ahhh Ken Loach I know, he's done a lot of things, though most remembered as being the ex-wrestler who played Bomber in Auf Wiedersehen, Pet.










solly OA, ok, me go now.........

To complete the circle - Timothy Spall, who played the Brummie bloke in Auf Weidershen Pet, starred in my favourite Mike Leigh film, Secrets & Lies. Brilliant film with a great story - thoroughly recommended.


Orgasmaddict, you've found at least one fellow fan!
