Life Is Sweet
A tragicomic story of everyday survival in Thatcher’s Britain, Life Is Sweet (1990) follows the misfortunes of a working-class family in suburban North London over a few weeks one summer. In this both funny and melancholic film meditating on claustrophobia of day to day life, modest dreams, food, friendship, and love, director Mike Leigh refuses to romanticize the traditional family, and delicately mixes up its real flavors.
