The Song of Lunch

— I think I'd like anything with Emma Thompson and Alan Rickman, and this is no exception. The story is a little sad and the self-loathing and drinking is difficult, but that's because the acting is so good and the story so familiar, if not in reality at least as a possiblity never played out. It's based on the narrative poem by Christopher Reid and well worth viewing. [Amazon Prime streaming.]
