Demme's ultimate directorial stroke is both poignant and familiar, as a chorus of dozens is pared down, until, yet again, only one sad, soaring voice is heard as the credits begin to roll.

"My mum's extremely happy where she is.

And she's looked after extremely well.

"But it really annoys me that she has to pay the full amount.

I think it's wrong.

"We should all have to make a contribution to our care when we grow old.

"But the state should pay some of it.

"Some people who have gone through life, and haven't owned a house, get it all from the state.
