The Terence Davies TrilogyThe Terence Davies Trilogy
Before Distant Voices, Still Lives (1988) and The Long Day Closes (1992) confirmed Terence Davies' status as one of the cinematic masters of our day, these three early shorts reveal a filmmaker of great promise.

The Terence Davies TrilogyDistant Voices, Still Lives
Terence Davies' stunning first full length feature draws from the director's own family memories. A strikingly intimate portrait of working-class life in 1940s and 1950s Liverpool.

The Terence Davies TrilogyThe Long Day Closes
Terence Davies' lyrical hymn to childhood revisits the same territory as Distant Voices, Still Lives, this time focusing on his own memories of growing up in a working-class Catholic family in Liverpool.

Terence Davies’ passionate and poetic love letter to his native Liverpool was one of the sensations of this year’s Cannes Film Festival. A heart-stirring meditation on time, memory and mortality, Of Time and the City combines images of Liverpool past and present with a wonderfully rich selection of music (ranging from Peggy Lee to Mahler, Handel to The Hollies), voices, radio clips, and the director’s own voice-over narration. The result is a powerful evocation of the director’s youth in post-war Britain and a reflection on how his home city - and the world at large - have changed over the years.
