Vacuuming Completely Nude in Paradise is a television film directed by Danny Boyle released and produced by BBC in association with Destiny Films for BBC Two on 30 September 2001. A satire on door-to-door salesmen, it stars Timothy Spall, who was nominated for a British Academy Television Award for Best Actor for his performance. The promotion material described the film as a cross between Death of a Salesman and Glengarry Glen Ross.[1] The film was created in the aftermath of the lackluster performances of Boyle's preceding films, A Life Less Ordinary and The Beach. Vacuuming Completely Nude in Paradise was a smaller budget and a return to more successful stylings and themes.[2][3]
