Mike Leigh Explains Why “It’s More Than Probable” That ‘Tender Loving Care’ Is His Final Film
At a San Sebastian Film Festival press conference on Tuesday, the British director was asked about his retirement and staying optimistic when "so many things are happening in the world, which are frightening and limiting."
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.
