On paper, it sounds like a quirky indie dramedy. In practice, it is a grenade lobbed into the stuffy attic of societal repression. What makes the film soar—and what makes the phrase "Good luck to you, Leo Grande" linger—is Thompson’s bravery. At 63, she insisted on full nudity for the mirror scene. She insisted that Nancy’s body not be "Hollywoodized" with soft lighting or clever camera angles. You see the stretch marks, the sagging skin, the cellulite. You also see the tears.
