Terence Davies Trilogy (Davies, 1976-1983): Prince Charles Cinema, 8.45pm

This is a 35mm presentation.

The highlight of the week, the month, no the year ... without a doubt. The three films that make up the triogy, Children (1976),  Madonna And Child (1980) and Death And Transfiguration (1983) are a fictional account of Davies’s life follows his alter ego from birth to death and examine the clash between his strict Catholic upbringing and his masochistic sexual fantasies. A remarkable achievement by one of Britain's greatest directors and a landmark film in post-War British cinema. Highly recommended.
