Naked is the angriest, most bitterly critical attack on the false values of society that Mike Leigh, Britain’s constant chronicler of the tragic comedy of desperate lives, has ever made. Its audacity is that the attack is mounted through a central …
Heeeere’s Johnny, the desperate, destructive prophet-of-the-apocalypse protagonist of Mike Leigh’s brilliantly corrosive Naked (1993), a sexually explicit update to a long line of British films, plays, and novels about angry young men. Johnny mi…
Mike Leigh was born in the north of England in 1943. He was trained in the theater at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art, and in film at the London Film School. When he arrived in London in the early 1960s, he was excited by Cassavetes’ movies, and …

The brilliant and controversial Naked, from director Mike Leigh, stars David Thewlis as Johnny, a charming and eloquent but relentlessly vicious drifter. Rejecting anyone who might care for him, the volcanic 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 costars 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.

"Naked, I just want to... stop that song reference right there. Yeah, forget Falco, although, honestly, I can't say that he's too much cheesier than reference that I don't mind going on in my head when I see this film's title: "You walk into the room, with your pencil in your hand; you see somebody naked, and you say, 'Who is that man?'". It's an at least more fitting reference, because this film can get a little weird at times, and on top of that, this film is a production by [u]Thin Man[/u] Films. Mike Leigh must be a Bob Dylan fan, which would make sense, because he seems to be about as passionate as Dylan is about talking about middle and working-class society in a slightly serious manner that's still kind of amusing, whether he intends for it to be or not. I'm really not sure if he's trying to be funny here, because as cheesy as the title sort of is, this film is a little toned down, comically speaking, for Leigh, as well it should be if it's going to have so much rape, as that's hardly a laughing matter. Now, if the lead were to suddenly turn into a werewolf and eat the woman or something, that would be a little more colorful, even though I can't say that I would be especially surprised. Well, maybe I would be a little surprised, because this film came out 11 years before "Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban", but as crazy as David Thewlis has always looked, he's got to be some kind of creepy, supernatural creature in real life, which is where we get this, "Werewolves East of London" (Within the first ten minutes of the film, he really does "joke" about once being a werewolf), which is fair, but a bit of a challenge, often more so than at should be, at least as a character study.
A very modern black comedy about the British middle-class, this character piece thrives on problematic and obnoxious characters who are effectively drawn and well-portrayed, but just such tremendous jerks, or at least that's the case of David Thewlis' possibly manic-depressive Johnny lead. As for everyone else, you don't really find all that much time to determine if they're jerks or not, as the narrative is about the shenanigans of Johnny as he travels the grimy depths of London, - encountering colorful characters - which are rather episodic in their structure, and therefore at least about as uneven as the film's tone. This is supposed to be more serious and bleak than the usual Mike Leigh black comedy, but that just makes it all the more jarring when the film alternatives from pseudo-sophistication that sometimes comes down to philosophy and introspection, to fast-pace and rather grimy humor that is often low-brow, with enough wit to snap and snap, until it becomes overwrought. I don't even see how p
