LISTINGS Film

An evening of short documentary films by undervalued post war British filmmaker Krish who went on to direct excellent sci-fi feature Unearthly Stranger, TV series The Avenger’s iconic opening sequence and loads of health and safety infomercials. This selection of films, brought together as A Day in the Life: Four Portraits of Post-War Britain by John Krish, shows Britain in transition. The Elephant Will Never Forget (1953) is his 1963 farewell short to London’s trams. They Took Us to the Sea (1961) and Our School (pictured) (1962) looks at the opportunities for young people as Britain climbed out of post war austerity and the unbearably moving but unsentimental I Think They Call Him John (1964) is a poignant reflection of the neglect of the elderly. How little has changed. Filmhouse, Edinburgh, Mon 3 Jan.
