It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

This would have to be categorized as experimental cinema--it's certainly not mainstream. It interweaves stories about three periods in a man's life: as a youth being indoctrinated in religion, as a middle-aged man dealing with the death of his mother, as an old man facing his own death. The filming in stark black-and-white suites the material. Every scene is presented to convince you of what an unhappy life this man has had. The nostrums of Christianity are counter-posed with harsh life realities indicating what director Davies must think of his religious training. The final death scene knocked me on my ass. I questioned myself if I could make it through this short film and, after having done so, I wondered how many suicide attempts were made after viewing it.
