Of Time and The City




Terrence Davies' Of Time and The City is a truly poetic film. Described as "a love song and a eulogy" Davies' work adresses urbanity, homosexuality, youth, memory, poverty, tradition, religion, sport, archieteture, love, old age, literature, and time by focusing on Liverpool just after the WWII. Mostly composed of achieval clips, Of Time and The City does something truly unique with the medium of film. This film is an absoulute must see. If you don't believe me check out what the NY Times said about it here.
