Spanning the last 25 years in the life of Britain's most revered painter, Mr. Turner is a remarkably rich portrait of a complex, contradictory man whose relationships with his family, fellow artists and lovers were often as turbulent as the canvases he painted. Hailed as one of the best films of the year, Mr. Turner is a beautifully shot epic and stands as another masterpiece from Mike Leigh, the seven-time Oscar-nominated director of Another Year and Topsy-Turvy.
