The Good Boss

“Javier Bardem’s mighty, magnetic turn propels this richly satisfying portrait of a proper workplace weasel.” ★★★★
The Sunday Independent

Move over David Brent: there’s a new repellent boss in town. Javier Bardem (Skyfall, No Country for Old Men) gets a comedy workout in this Spanish workplace satire. He plays Blanco, chief of a regional manufacturer who is doing his best to win a local government award for “business excellence”. What stands in his way – striking workers, squabbling staff and his own self-sabotage – are the stuff of great comedy.

A cheeky and acerbic film for anyone who has ever had to stifle shouting at their CEO.

Directed by Fernando León de Aranoa
