The Terence Davies Trilogy

1983103 min6.5 / 10

A formally austere, deeply introspective excavation of a gay man's fragmented life across time, rendered in stark monochrome as a meditation on memory, loss, and the search for meaning.

In stark black and white, Terence Davies excavates the life of his fictional alter ego, Robert Tucker, in a narrative that slips between childhood, middle age and death, shaping the raw materials of his own life into a rich tapestry of experiences and impressions.
