"One of British cinema’s great monsters... Mike Leigh’s fiercely bleak masterwork is even more disturbing 28 years on.” - The Guardian

From master director Mike Leigh, the brilliant and controversial Naked stars David Thewlis as antihero Johnny, a charming and eloquent but relentlessly vicious drifter. Rejecting anyone who might care for him, Johnny hurls himself around London on a nocturnal odyssey, colliding with a succession of other desperate and dispossessed people and scorching everyone in his path. With a virtuoso script and raw performances from Thewlis and co-stars Katrin Cartlidge and Lesley Sharp, Leigh’s depiction of England’s underbelly is an amalgam of black comedy and doomsday prophecy that took the best director and best actor prizes at the 1993 Cannes Film Festival.
