Here - Philip Larkin (HD)

'Here' is a visual adaptation the Philip Larkin poem of the same name. The poem portrays a journey through a rural landscape, a large town and out to the coast. While the region and town are unnamed in the poem, Larkin himself stated that the poem in a celebration of East Yorkshire and the city of Hull.

Featuring a contemplative read from Hull-born, multi BAFTA winning, twice Oscar nominated actor Sir Tom Courtenay, the film revisits the landscape and characters that inspired Larkin almost half a century before.

Modern Britain: Philip would be out there, shirts sleeves up, ready to fight.

Outstandingly sympathetic cinematically to the poem and such a wonderful reading by Courtenay. Thanks for posting this inspirational piece.
