Summary
Directed by Mike Leigh in 1993, 'Naked' is a stark character study of Johnny, played by David Thewlis. The film explores themes of existentialism, nihilism, and self-hatred as Johnny engages in a series of disturbing interactions with strangers, demonstrating his misogyny and sadistic tendencies. Shot in London's desolate urban landscape at night, the film captures the bleakness of Johnny's mental state.
