Filmmaker Mike Leigh bids farewell with the most beautiful ode to compassion in ‘Tender Loving Care’
The director of ‘Secrets and Lies’ has confirmed by video, as he has not traveled to San Sebastián to present his film due to his deteriorating health: “It’s more than likely that it’s my last film”
Mike Leigh's film Tender Loving Care is competing at the San Sebastián festival. The director revealed that it is likely to be his last film due to health reasons. Leigh has been suffering from miositis, an inflammation of voluntary muscles, which prevents him from making further films. He made the announcement at a press conference in San Sebastián, after recently attending the Toronto festival with the same film.
