Oliver Hermanus / UK 2022 / 102 min / 12
A remake of Kurusowa's masterpiece, Ikiru (To live, 1952). In 1950s London, Bill Nighy plays Mr Williams, a stiff upper-lipped civil servant who takes stock of his life after receiving a grim diagnosis. Overwhelmed at work and lonely at home, he develops a friendship with one of his junior work colleagues, a local, lively, young woman. Stepping outside the box in which he spent most of his life, he searches for meaning in his hitherto predictable life, until a simple revelation gives him a purpose to create a legacy for the next generation. A career best from Bill Nighy, this near-perfect film has won 5-star reviews from Empire and The Guardian . . . the remake of a masterpiece that can stand with the original(Sight and Sound).
