The Museum of the Moving Image will screen a complete retrospective of Terence Davies' filmography from September 12 to 21, 2023. This event was programmed with permission from the Terence Davies Estate following Davies' death at age 77. The series will present nine features, a trilogy of early short films, and other rare shorts. Cynthia Nixon will attend a screening on September 18, and the opening reception will celebrate the reissue of Davies' 1984 novel "Hallelujah Now." Highlights include "The House of Mirth," "Benediction," and "Distant Voices, Still Lives."
"When Terence Davies passed away in the fall of 2023, the world lost one of its greatest, most uncompromising cinematic artists. Davies all but invented his own film language, using sound and image to radically and meaningfully plumb the depths of human desire and alienation, as well as the joys of family, of poetry, of music, and, of course, movies."
"Terence Davies: Time Present and Time Past" will includes late English filmmaker Davies' nine features, many of which are in rare film prints, as well as his trilogy of early short films and other rarely screened shorts.
