Synopsis

The brilliant and controversial Naked, from director Mike Leigh, stars David Thewlis as Johnny, a charming and eloquent but relentlessly vicious drifter. Rejecting anyone who might care for him, the volcanic Johnny hurls himself around London on a nocturnal odyssey, colliding with a succession of other desperate and dispossessed people and scorching everyone in his path.

Review

A brilliant, terrifying and undeniably real vision of the welfare state. Mike Leigh takes us on a picaresque journey following Johnny (David Thewlis in a stunning performance), our 27–year–old protagonist (or is that antagonist?), an embittered, overly loquacious ne'er–do–well who spews forth a relentlessly nihilistic tirade against man, God and society. After sexually assaulting a woman in Manchester, he flees to London and insinuates himself on his former girlfriend, Louise, and immediately beds her roommate, Sophie. Quickly tiring of their company, he hits the streets for a midnight sojourn, on which he waxes eloquent with every stranger about his apocalyptic philosophies. Mike Leigh does a brilliant job of framing Johnny's rage against a backdrop of urban decay.
