Presented on Blu-ray for the first time, Mike Leigh followed up Secrets & Lies with Career Girls, a comic masterpiece about youth, sex, and memory.
Hannah (Katrin Cartlidge) and Annie (Lynda Steadman) were inseparable when they shared an apartment, years ago. Now, they are reunited for one weekend on the town.
As they encounter several people with whom they were students in London in the mid-1980s, these ‘Career Girls’ awaken their memories – of loves lost and old rivalries – that builds a picture of just how they have changed in the intervening years.
