TIFF Diaries, Episode 1: Tea, Grief and Mike Leigh's Quiet Goodbye

<p>We kick off our Toronto International Film Festival coverage with the first film on our list, Mike Leigh&#39;s Tender Loving Care. In this episode we talk about why this might be Leigh&#39;s final film, how it compares to his earlier work like Another Year and Hard Truths, and why a movie about tea, gossip and social workers ends up hitting so much harder than expected. We dig into the performances, especially a career defining turn from Kate O&#39;Flynn, and unpack that gut punch of a final scene that has us still thinking days later.</p>
