1966: A Nation Remembers
Cinematography
1966 was both the first and only time England hosted - and won - the football World Cup. 30th July was the day of the final, and exactly 50 years to that day later, those people who were there reminisce.
Hal Cruttenden Live: Tough Luvvie
Camera Operator
Older, wiser, funnier and far closer to a full breakdown, Cruttenden certainly has an edge to him, perhaps it’s from existing on the edges of things; the edges of London, the edge of middle-age, the edge of middle-class and the edge of greater fame. He has all the likeability of an arena comic but with something of the night about him.
Gerry Rafferty: Right Down the Line
Camera Operator
Gerry Rafferty, who died in January 2011, was one of Scotland's best-loved singer/songwriters, famous around the world for hits such as "Baker Street" and "Stuck in the Middle With You". This ArtWorks Scotland film, narrated by David Tennant, tells the story of Rafferty's life through his often autobiographical songs and includes contributions from Gerry's daughter Martha and brother Jim, friends and colleagues including Billy Connolly, John Byrne, and Joe Egan, admirers such as Tom Robinson and La Roux, and words and music from Rafferty himself.
Of Time and the City
Cinematography
A heart-stirring meditation on time, memory and mortality, “Of Time and the City” is Terence Davies’ poetic, conflicted ode to his birthplace of Liverpool, England. The visual content of the film consists largely of archival clips of the city from the 1940s to the 1960s, their nostalgic charm darkened by accompanying music and the counterpoint of Davies’ dry, at times dyspeptic, voice-over narration. His voice thickens with emotion as he recalls the delights of juvenile movie-going or the ritual of a holiday trip to New Brighton, across the River Mersey, and hardens with contempt when he turns his gaze on the hoopla surrounding Queen Elizabeth’s coronation in 1953. The film is a powerful evocation of the director's youth in post-war Britain and a reflection on how his home city has changed over the years.
The Vienna Strangler
Director of Photography
The story of Austrian, Johann "Jack" Unterweger (1950-1994), who wrote a book about his criminal past while serving a life term in prison for assault. In 1974, Unterweger murdered 18-year-old German citizen Margaret Schäfer by strangling her with her own bra, and in 1976 was arrested and sentenced to life in prison. And that was only the beginning... Epsidode 1:4 of "Serial Killers".
