Naked (1993) stars David Thewlis as Johnny, a charming and articulate but vicious misfit, drifting around London on a nocturnal odyssey, colliding with a succession of desperate and dispossessed characters. Mike Leigh’s script is scintillating and it’s arguably his best directorial work too. The film won the best director and best actor prizes at the Cannes Film Festival.
Alonso Ruizpalacios, writer-director of Gueros (2014), Museo (2018), A Cop Movie (2021) and La Cocina (2024), joins to discuss the film.
