Hard Truths
ComedyDrama97 min
Pansy is a London woman whose every interaction seems to curdle into anger, whether she’s snapping at strangers or turning on her husband and son at home. Marianne Jean-Baptiste is Pansy, all jagged nerves and buried hurt; her younger sister Chantelle (Michele Austin) lives in a different rhythm, raising two daughters and putting salon clients at ease through her work as a hairdresser. As the sisters circle each other through family visits and daily routines, Mike Leigh keeps the focus on the strain inside ordinary moments, and on the fear and long-held pain underneath Pansy’s lashing out.
