Discover unmissable films from Britains finest documentary filmmaker, once described as 'the only true poet of the English Cinema' and a key figure in BBC4's recent 'Britain Through a
Lens: The Documentary Film Mob'.
This DVD features three films by Humphrey Jennings - Listen to Britain, Diary for Timothy and I Was A Fireman - plus an acclaimed Channel 4 documentary by Kevin Macdonald and a booklet introduced by Lord David Puttnam.
- Listen to Britain is an extraordinary collage of the sounds and sights of wartime Britain
- Diary for Timothy is a film made for a baby born in the aftermath of the war, with Michael Redgrave narrating from a script by EM Forster
- I Was a Fireman is a feature-length story of a day (and night) in the life of a fire crew during the Blitz
These three sublime wartime films focus on ordinary people doing extraordinary things, emphasising the heroic nature of continuing with everyday life in the face of uncertainty and peril.
