Living (2022, D: Hermanus) S: Bill Nighy -- Ikiru remake
In select US theaters starting on December 23rd, 2022.
1953. A London shattered by WWII is still recovering. Williams (Bill Nighy), a veteran civil servant, is an impotent cog within the city’s bureaucracy as it struggles to rebuild. Buried under paperwork at the office, lonely at home, his life has long felt empty and meaningless. Then a shattering medical diagnosis forces him to take stock – and to try and grasp fulfillment before it goes beyond reach.

Yeah I saw Ikiru when i was young but really enjoyed it. I'm a huge Bill Nighy fan and I think he does great in these "tragic lonely guy trying to make things right" roles. So that, it being an Ikiru remake, and the post WWII setting seem a perfect mix for me to enjoy.
