All or Nothing is a 2002 British drama film written and directed by Mike Leigh, released between two of his more well-known works; Vera Drake & Happy Go Lucky.

The film stars Leigh veterans Lesley Manville, Timothy Spall, Ruth Sheen, Sally Hawkins, Sam Kelly, Daniel Mays & Marion Bailey. As well as James Corden & Alison Garland.

The film takes place on a grim London council estate, and follows the events of three working class families, each dealing with their fair share of problems.

As with all Mike Leigh films, the script was made up of extensive improvisations, a technique which gives his films a very natural look.
