The first part, Distant voices, opens with grown siblings Eileen, Maisie, and Tony, and their mother arranged in mourning clothes before the photograph of their smiling father. Soon after, the family poses in a similar tableau, but for a happier occasion--Eileen's wedding. While relatives sing at her reception, Eileen hysterically grieves for her dad, and recalls happy times of her youth. Tony and Maisie's memories, however, are more troubled. ... In Still lives, set (and filmed) two years later, the siblings are settled in life, but not all happily. For Eileen, relief from her drab existence comes only when singing at the pub." 521 8 Rated - 12; suitable only for persons of 12 years and over. 538 DVD PAL ; Region 2. 546 Closed-captioned for the hearing impaired. 590 PFA 0230-01-13289. |aCONDITION NOTE: Last checked: 2008/11 /19 Excellent condition. 650 0 Working class families|zEngland|zLiverpool|vDrama. 650 0 Family violence|vDrama. 650 0 Parent and adult child|vDrama. 650 0 Brothers and sisters|vDrama. 650 0 Parents|xDeath|vDrama. 655 7 Features.|2mim 655 7 Drama.|2mim 690 0 British films. 700 1 Davies, Terence,|d1945- 700 1 Howarth, Jennifer. 700 1 Diver, William. 700 1 Duval, Patrick. 700 1 Van Zwanenberg, Miki. 700 1 James, Jocelyn. 700 1 Dowie, Freda. 700 1 Postlethwaite, Pete. 700 1 Walsh, Angela. 700 1 Williams, Dean. 700 1 Ashbourne, Lorraine. 700 1 Davies, Sally. 710 2 Film Four International. 710 2 British Film Institute. 935 GLADN51265388 941 0 PFA 0230-01-13289.
