Win a Free Happy-Go-Lucky Movie Poster!

Happy-Go-Lucky Poster Giveaway

Director Mike Leigh has been around for a while — directing such films as Vera Drake and Topsy-Turvy. And with those films, he’s developed a solid base of appreciators. And with his latest film Happy-Go-Lucky, the story of an unrelentingly optimistic young woman named Poppy (played by Sally Hawkins), I’d be willing to bet that his fan base is bound to grow. As is the base of Sally Hawkins, who was described by my good friend Pete Sciretta at Slashfilm as delivering “one hell of a performance” in this film.

And in order to help get the word out on this film, which hits theaters in limited release on October 10th, we’ve received a few posters to give away. In fact, three (3) lucky winners could each score one of said posters (pictured right, click to enlarge). All you have to do is be a subscriber to our daily email updates, powered by Feedburner.

The second thing that you must do is answer a question in the comment area at the bottom of the page. You must be a legal resident of the United States or Canada in order to win, you must enter prior to October 17th.

When it comes to reading movie sites (like this one), what makes you Happy-Go-Lucky?

    I'm bound to win one of these fucking things if I keep entering.

    I think what makes me go happy-go-lucky is commenting on the stories and pretending that I know what the hell I'm talking about, and have other people believe it.

    Wait, shit, I think I just shot my credibility.
  • Jeff R Hall
    What makes me happy go lucky is realizing that Neil and Kevin will comment that he stars need to be naked more often, even if they spend the entire films sans clothing.
  • The main thing that makes me go Happy-Go-Lucky when it comes to reading movie sites are lists. Lists for the best actors, best comedies, best dialogue or best films always reveal a few more great movies I have yet to watch (Empire's 500 list is enough to tide me over well into next year).

    This is one of the few movies that I couldn't wait to watch again while I was only halfway through...

    It definitely has to be the trailers, I love watching trailers before they're in theaters and talking about it with my friends.
  • supremejred
    I love bad reviews. I like sites that just trash movies worthy of being trashed.
  • Troy
    I love when you hate on movies.
  • Darren Perleberg
    It makes me happy when I see news that relates to my key interests.

    On the other side though, I despise seeing news of sequels or remakes to movies that don't need them("Red Dawn", "Footloose").
  • Matthias Galvin
    For me, there are two: First, seeing news on films directed and/or written by my favorite writers and/or directors (or writer-directors). The second is whenever a film that deserves it gets slammed. It's always fun to see a bad film get its comeupence.

    I love reading about how they go about making the movie. Thanks so much for this giveaway.
