Directed by Mike Leigh, this short film was commissioned by Channel 4 in the UK and gave its title to the subsequent short film series shown by the channel. Starring David Thewlis and Alison Steadman, this is the bittersweet tale of the growing relationship between Clive (Thewlis) and Joy (Sylvestra Le Touzel), told through a series of vignettes.  Those familiar with Mike Leigh's work will know what to expect, for the uninitiated expect a fairly bleak (though offset by humour) plot-light 'slice of life' drama.  Don't expect shootouts, explosions, naked female ninjas - those were saved for the director's cut ;-) - the imdb keywords for this are: "Hairdresser | Pharmacy | Joke | Haircut | England".

This came as an extra with the recently released Mike Leigh boxset. From the looks of it, it was a last-minute extra as the quality is not great. No digital remastering here, this came straight from a (VHS?) tape source and included some minor tape roll (removed while encoding), while the soundtrack has some static hiss on it.

You don't have Mike Leigh's 'Hard Labour' by any chance, do you?
