À propos de ce film

From BAFTA-winning filmmaker Mike Leigh featuring an all star cast All or Nothing is about the families of a London housing estate. Penny's (Lesley Manville) love for her partner, taxi-driver Phil (Timothy Spall), has run dry. He is a gentle, philosophical guy and she works on the checkout at a supermarket. Their daughter Rachel (Alison Garland) cleans in a home for elderly people and their son Rory (James Corden) is unemployed and aggressive. The joy has gone out of Phil's and Penny's life, but when Rory becomes ill and is rushed to hospital, they are finally brought together to rediscover their love. Their neighbours are also dealing with their own crises; a surprise pregnancy causes a heated argument between Donna (Helen Coker), her violent boyfriend Jason (Daniel Mays) and her mother (Ruth Sheen); and a family struggling with unemployment and alcoholism while wayward daughter Samantha (Sally Hawkins) shows an interest in both Jason and Craig (Ben Crompton), a loner from the estate.
