‘Good Luck To You, Leo Grande’: Emma Thompson On Nudity Onscreen, Sex & Female Pleasure
60-something-year-old Nancy has never had good sex, and she’s going to pursue it on her own terms, even if that means going to lengths she would have never considered in her younger days. And so goes the premise of Sophie Hyde’s quietly revolutionary “Good Luck To You, Leo Grande,” a mostly single-location dramedy in which a flawless Emma Thompson perceptively plays a widowed and retired school teacher who hires Daryl McCormack’s handsome sex worker Leo Grande to learn what all the fuss is about finally.
