I'm So Charmed By Powell And Pressburger's Films
Link #a canterbury tale #cinema #between this #and i know where i'm going! #i'm so charmed by powell and pressburger's films #they're steeped in the tradition and folklore of a place #with canterbury as mystic city of eternal pilgrimage #that can ease wounds and worries #most especially for peter gibbs #a bruised sensitivity underneath a carapace #i also love the film's broad mind and clear eyes #that it celebrates the past without romanticising it #ultimately it has a kind heart and a gentle spirit #especially in the way it treats mr colpeper #and that's so much of what i want from stories
