In the last 25 years of his life, renowned British artist, J.M.W. Turner, navigates his evolving position within the London art scene while grieving the loss of his father. Meanwhile, he ignores the existence of his two illegitimate daughters and further develops his legendary painting style.
After his intimate kitchen-sink drama Another Year, Mike Leigh turned to this ambitious portrait of an artist at war with himself. Mr. Turner experiments with the rules of biopics while setting the stage for Timothy Spall’s career-best role, which won him Best Actor at Cannes.
