The Long Day Closes

Country: UK
Genre: Drama
Synopsis
Eleven-year-old "Bud" is a sad and lonely boy. Cinema is his main source of solace. His family looms large in our peripheral vision as do the menacing bullies of his school, but Bud is the center of attention both from the camera's angle and from his doting family. With a gray background, the film fuses clips and audio from classic movies into Bud?s dreary childhood and brings it to life.

8 / 10 Terence Davies is England's greatest living filmmaker and his autobiographical work is by far his best. Much of his other work is less inspired, but his film of the Terence Rattigan play The Deep Blue Sea is quite something as well, even though it's perhaps not cast exactly right.
