Happy-Go-Lucky

Mike Leigh's Happy-Go-Lucky is one of the best films I saw all year. I was practically dragged into the theater kicking and screaming. When I left, I knew that I'd experienced more than a few moments in that small room that I will not and cannot forget. No spoilers here; just, see the film. Tonight, if possible. Nevermind the trailer.
