Love Again is a 2003 British television drama film directed by Susanna White, starring Hugh Bonneville, Tara Fitzgerald, Amanda Root, Lorraine Ashbourne and Eileen Atkins. It is about the poet Philip Larkin, his life as a librarian at the University of Hull from 1955 to 1985, and his relationships with three women and his mother. It premiered on BBC2 on 26 July 2003.
The Irish Independent wrote that "if this were fiction, there'd be no point and very little drama", but with Larkin as the main character, the film becomes "both enthralling and illuminating".
