...there is such piercing vulnerability in the delicacy with which Bill Nighy plays Mr Williams, a Big Smoke pencil pusher forced to reckon with what life really means before he draws his final breath.

...a rare remake that only augments and enriches the original.

Kazuo Ishiguro elegantly adapts 1950s mortality tale.

...an extremely proper British film is the perfect vehicle for an extremely proper Bill Nighy.

...Nighy makes Living worthwhile through sheer force of will. In the film’s picturesque, composed, nearly stagnant beauty, he finds something honest in repression.

Bill Nighy is brilliant in this graceful, affecting Akira Kurosawa remake.
