Tender Loving Care
Legendary filmmaker Mike Leigh says that his upcoming film “Tender Loving Care” is likely to be his last. He tells Indiewire he has mytosis – a disease in which the immune system attacks the muscles.

That means making another film is “not going to be possible” he says. Asked if ‘Care’ would be his final film, he says: “Absolutely. I think very likely, yes. I mean, I know the girls don’t like to hear me say that, but I think that is the case.” The film opens in cinemas December 4th.
