SUBLIME CINEMA #662 - ANOTHER YEAR
'Nothing changes', claims Imelda Staunton's character at the outset of Mike Leigh's Another Year, and then we are taken through each passing season of a year in which everything changes, though maybe not quite in the same way for everyone.
Mike Leigh is a master who prefers to throw you into the midst of his characters lives and ply you with empathy rather than twist you into a plot of a typical film. The plot derives solely from the characters natural responses to their personal situations, and our fascination is unabated because of how extraordinary Leigh and his cast can fasten something out of the ordinary.

Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5
Adapted by veteran screenwriter Paula Milne from Apple Tree Yard author Louise Doughty's bestselling novel, Platform 7 is an intriguing drama with a great cast. Jasmine Jobson (from gangster drama Top Boy) is our heroine Lisa, a young woman who has considerably more of a past than she does a future. .....
With a BAFTA, Emmys and a stellar career spanning five decades, both here and in Hollywood, Paula Milne has nothing to prove to anyone, least of all me. Nonetheless, Platform 7's screenplay is clearly the work of a writer of a certain age.
'Culture is the sign of a civilised society. It's there for everyone who wants it,' Lisa lectures boyfriend Matt (Toby Regbo, excellent) in flashback.
'For everyone who wants to understand who we are as human beings. Our internal lives. And how we feel and relate to each other.'
Sorry, Ms Milne, but Lisa (a 30-year-old English and drama teacher) talks like no Millennial I've ever come across! Still, this is a minor quibble.
Platform 7 takes viewers on an entirely unexpected – and unexpectedly entertaining – journey, during which (thanks to the fabulous Ms Jobson) you won't stop rooting for Lisa's uneasy soul to finally rest in peace."
