Deadline’s International Grand Tour Series Kicks Off With Bleecker Street’s ‘Hard Truths’; Screenings Set For London, Paris, Rome & Copenhagen
deadline.comDeadline is proud to launch its new International Grand Tour series which will kick off with Bleecker Street’s Hard Truths, the latest feature from legendary British filmmaker Mike Leigh.
The film, which sees Leigh reunite with his Secrets & Lies actors Marianne Jean-Baptiste and Michele Austin, will screen across four major European cities – London, Paris, Rome and Copenhagen – followed by a Q&A with Jean-Baptiste. (Leigh will also join the Q&A for the London edition).
Hard Truths, which is being released nationwide in the U.S. on January 10, sees Leigh return to the contemporary world with a fierce, compassionate, and often darkly humorous study of family and the thorny ties that bind us.
Jean-Baptiste plays Pansy, a woman wracked by fear, tormented by afflictions, and prone to raging tirades against her husband, son, and anyone who looks her way.
