It's perhaps no surprise there isn't much in the way of narrative in "Another Year" since it's a movie composed largely by actors. Yes, British director Mike Leigh wrote the screenplay — even receiving an Oscar nomination for it. But like many of his films, it was written over the course of months with the cast continually improvising dialogue and scenes, which were incorporated into the script when it came time to shoot. Leigh's an auteur of group efforts.
