Among British cinema’s greatest ever films, Terence Davies’ stunning Distant Voices, Still Lives screens on Monday and Tuesday evening in a new digital restoration. Thirty years after its initial release, this award-winning film continues to resonate as a British film’s defining image of memory and melancholia. Partly autobiographical, it evokes Davies' upbringing in Liverpool after the WWII in a working-class home dominated by the violence of his father, fearsomely played by Pete Postlethwaite.
