Additional InformationMike Leigh produces another devastating masterpiece with the heartbreaking VERA DRAKE. Imelda Staunton is the title character, beloved wife of Stan (Phil Davis) and mother of Sid (Daniel Mays) and Ethel (Alex Kelly). Vera spends her days cleaning houses for money and looking in on elderly and sick neighbours out of the kindness of her heart. She even attempts to be a matchmaker for her daughter, inviting a lonely neighbour, Reg (Eddie Marsan), to see if he might be a perfect match for the introverted Ethel. But Vera performs another duty that her family doesn't know about, one that is deeply frowned upon by society. When tragedy befalls a young client of Vera's, the truth comes out, forcing her family to see their mother in an entirely different light. Staunton gives a towering performance and, in typical Mike Leigh fashion, the story, characters, and script were built from a gruelling and intricate improvisation process, resulting in a film that burns with heart-wrenching sincerity. Rather than take a heavy-handed approach towards his controversial subject matter, Leigh heroically remains non-judgmental, delivering an achingly humanistic drama that will linger with audiences long after they leave the theatre.

    Excellent film brilliantly acted.

    Vera Drake is an excellent film, I had seen it when it first came out in about 2006 but it was well worth watching again. Brilliant acting from an excellent cast. Would definitely recommend.

    Vera Drake

    This is a very accurate account of what went on in the late 40s and 50s. This woman, Vera Drake genuinely thought that she was helping women by performing abortions for them for no fee. When it was discovered, she was arrested, all her family went to court to hear the case and had absolutely no idea she had been doing this. Her so called friend had been arranging the clients and charging them without Vera's knowledge. She was mortified. I found it believable and fascinating to watch the film and would recommend it.

    Words fail me

    A superb depiction of the horrors of abortion in the 50s and the hypocrisy that surrounds society's treatment of women.This is undoubtedly ML's finest film. The lead actress gives a Stellar performance.
