Movie Description
A cynical and pessimistic Manchester drifter, Johnny (David Thewlis), arrives in London, afflicting his ex-girlfriend and her flatmate with an unsolicited visit. When he isn't having rough sex with the roommate or pestering the night watchman at a sterile, modern office complex, he berates his ex for her bourgeois urban tendencies. Leigh's portrait of a deteriorating world at the end of the twentieth century is an intense drama, which packs an even greater punch due to Thewlis's stunning performance as the bitter Johnny.

Notes
NAKED had its American premiere at The New York Film Festival on October 15, 1993.

"My feelings about NAKED are as ambivalent as my feelings about our chaotic late 20th-century world...I don't really want to pontificate about this film. I'd rather let it speak for itself."--Claire Monk, quoting director Mike Leigh in SIGHT AND SOUND, 11/1993

"I've seen more life in an open grave."--Johnny (David Thewlis), to Louise (Lesley Sharp)

"You see, what I'm sayin' basically is, you can't make an omelette without crackin' a few eggs, and humanity is just a cracked egg--and the omelette...stinks."--Johnny, to Brian (Peter Wight)

Editorial Reviews
"...A strangely moving love story....Anchored by a confident tour de force from Thewlis..."
Variety - Derek Elley (05/24/1993)

"With lunatic swagger and gonzo jive, Thewlis explores the dark pits of nocturnal London..." -- Grade: A
Entertainment Weekly - Timothy Gunatilaka (09/23/2005)
