I said to downcast eyes—
Look up; accept surprise
Which waits, all welcomings.
I said to shuttered ears—
Heed how earth music nears
On wonder's wind-swept strings.

(1968)

#Film of the year has got to be #Benediction. I admit I’m biased: Terence Davies is my favourite director - #gay, #Liverpudlian, (a bit) grumpy, honest, unashamedly and somehow radically nostalgic, truly cinematic. #WW1 #poet #SiegfriedSassoon was a great choice of subject (though I can’t say I warmed to him) and the performances are beautiful. newyorker.com/culture/the-fron #arthouse #FilmOfTheYear #LGBTQ #TerenceDavies
