Tunes - Hoboken, NJ

With films like SECRETS & LIES, HAPPY-GO-LUCKY and NAKED, writer/director Mike Leigh has been called "the unsparing poet of the British working class" (Rolling Stone). And with this overlooked classic - made between his Oscarr-winning TOPSY-TURVY and Oscarr-nominated VERA DRAKE - Leigh explores the anger, alienation and broken dreams that define the everyday lives of three families in a low-income London housing project.
