Bookmark and Share Great Mike Leigh Character - Poppy - Drivers Ed Film

The lead character in Mike Leigh's Happy Go Lucky is named Poppy. Poppy, a very upbeat but demanding role, is played by actress Sally Hawkins.
Sally Hawkins is terrific in this film and a great surprise is Eddie Marsan, who is typically a solid character actor (the drivers ed instructor scene is impressive). Is the rest of the film any good though? Sometimes a great cast and great acting don't quite get the job done on a poor film.
I saw Mike Leigh's Happy Go Lucky on DVD and decided to do a review on this film. Is this film any good? Is it the right film for you? Check out my review to see how I rated this film. Hopefully my post will lend you some insight on whether or not you should take your valuable time to watch it.
If you get a chance to check out my site, I also did another post on a Leigh film "Another Year" with Jim Broadbent. Take a look at that too if you would like (please :-)
