A Private Masterpiece, Oct 2 2010
By Mary M - Published on Amazon.com
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: NEW Of Time & The City (DVD) (DVD)
First I rented, then I bought. There is nothing like this film anywhere. Just sit back, watch and listen to a world, not at all beautiful, but achingly poignant.I only wish I had seen the film before my brief time there while on a tour of Britain; the visit would have been much more meaningful.
Unique, precious film footage set to heavenly music. And the comments only add to the sincerity of the effort.

Brilliant Allegory, Nov 15 2011
By Rex - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: NEW Of Time & The City (DVD) (DVD)
Of Time and the City isn't only about Liverpool. It could just as well be speaking of Detroit today or any other city decimated by "progress" and the pursuit of the next new thing. The people progress from childhood to old age as observers of growth and decay while all the time it is happening to them too. The film is a brilliant allegory about life in the modern world. The narration seems to begin with admiration, journey through disappointment, only to arrive at hope for the next generation. The constant quotes read as captions to the photography are worth the price alone. The narrator's personal comments may rile some but are only part of a portrait of life in the big city. It ain't all hearts and flowers.
