No one has laid bare the troubled complexity of contemporary society better than Mike Leigh. Naked, treads an intricate path through a London that many people would prefer to ignore. Johnny is the ultimate anti-hero of the nineties - cold, cynical and immoral, yet at times both caring and passionate. His complex existence is sketched with the hand of the master, as violence and gentleness, comedy and tragedy go hand in hand through a landscape inhabited by the sort of characters only Mike Leigh can create.
