Finding Your Feet (12A)

Led by a charming pairing of Imelda Staunton and Celia Imrie, this British retiree rom-com (with a warm side-order of death and dementia!) is by turns a film with happiness, sadness, joy and disappointment.

Staunton and Imrie lead as long-estranged sisters Sandra and Bif. When Sandra, a suburban toff, surprises her husband mid-clinch with his mistress, she grabs her fancy luggage and lands at the door of bohemian Bif’s cluttered council flat. Within days, Sandra is joining Bif’s dance class, smoking her weed and making eyes at a two-stepping retiree named Charlie (the wonderful Timothy Spall).

Spall and Staunton in particular are tremendous. Her girlish pleasure when she rediscovers her joy in dancing lights up her face from the inside; his quiet grief, as he realises that his cherished visits to his dementia-stricken wife are causing her confusion and pain, is heart-wrenching.

Watch out too for a gloriously vampy Joanna…
