Hard Truths Review
‘Hard Truths’ has Director Mike Leigh Reunited with Actor Marianne Jean-Baptiste for a Caustic, Funny Film. Jean-Baptiste plays Pansy, a woman who suffers no fools, pushing everything around her away, but also confronting deeply-held family issues. Opening in theaters on January 10th, ‘Hard Truths’ finds director Mike Leigh back in some familiar modern-day territory after a couple of trips to the past for previous two movies ‘Mr.
Turner’ and ‘Peterloo.’ It’s also a welcome reunion for the filmmaker and one of his main muses, actor Marianne Jean-Baptiste, who here runs with a superbly-crafted character brimming with vinegar and criticism, who is nevertheless revealed to be a woman carrying heavy emotional burdens.
