Additional Information
The second film in Terence DaviesÆs autobiographical series (TRILOGY, THE LONG DAY CLOSES) is an impressionistic view of a working-class family in 1940s and 1950s Liverpool, based on DaviesÆs own family. The first part, DISTANT VOICES, opens with grown siblings Eileen (Angela Walsh), Maisie (Lorraine Ashbourne) and Tony (Dean Williams), and their mother (Freda Dowie) arranged in mourning clothes before the photograph of their smiling father (Pete Postlethwaite). Soon after, the family poses in a similar tableau, but for a happier occasion û EileenÆs wedding. While relatives sing at her reception, Eileen hysterically grieves for her dad, and recalls happy times of her youth. Tony and MaisieÆs memories, however, are more troubled. Davies intermingles and contrasts scenes like the family peacefully lighting candles in church with the brutal man beating his wife and terrorizing his young children. In STILL LIVES, set (and filmed) two years later, the siblings are settled in life, but not all happily. For Eileen, relief from her drab existence comes only when singing at the pub. With his skillfully composed frames and evocative use of music in place of dialogue, Davies creates a lovely, affecting photo album of a troubled family wrestling with the complexity of love.
Reviews
Film Comment - The film rewards patience with astonishment....DISTANT VOICES, STILL LIVES is a haunting work of austere mise en scene and convulsive, repressed emotions..., Los Angeles Times - Terence Davies' mesmerising memory film, DISTANT VOICES, STILL LIVES, becomes its own kind of poetry: taut, referential, inward, brilliant, Empire - This inspired blend of musical and melodrama succeeds in being both fond and forlorn, artistic and authentic
