Sally Hawkins more than lives up to the title as Pauline "Poppy" Cross, a thirtysomething London schoolteacher whose preternaturally cheerful disposition seemingly can’t be shaken by the work- and home-related problems she must cope with, in this heartfelt seriocomedy from director Mike Leigh. Eddie Marsan, Alexis Zegerman, Andrea Riseborough, Sinead Matthews also star. 119 min. Widescreen (Enhanced); Soundtrack: English
