Synopsis:
Hannah (Katrin Cartlidge) and Annie (Lynda Steadman) were inseparable when they shared an apartment, years ago. Now, they are reunited for one weekend on the town. As they encounter several people with whom they were students in London in the mid-1980s, these 'Career Girls' awaken their memories - of loves lost and old rivalries - that builds a picture of just how they have changed in the intervening years.

Precursor - Career Girls review by AG

Spoiler Alert
23/12/2014

Mike Leigh is a brilliant film maker. Whatever he does is always interesting. I recall his very early TV efforts 'Nuts in May' 'Abigail's Patrty' and have been hooked since then.... haven't caught 'Turner ' yet. My favourite, at present, is Sally Hawkins in 'Happy-go-Lucky'. I saw it on Cinema Paradiso DVD and when it was over I immediately watched it again with subtitles so that I could catch all the dialogue. 'Career Girls' is OK and has many of the Leigh hallmarks but just didn't quite engage with these characters. I admired Mark Benton's quirky, disturbing role and Andy Serkis' brief cameo as London b(w)anker. The girls were good but I could not get emotionally involved about their adolescence and angst-ridden formative years.
