A stunning, and still relevant, piece of work from Alan Bleasdale.
To quote the British Film Institute..."seminal drama series...a warm, humourous but ultimately tragic look at the way economics affect ordinary people...TV's most complete dramatic response to the Thatcher era and as a lament to the end of a male, working class British culture"

This evening's viewing distraction: new 4k restored version of 1949's Stray Dog by the masterful Akira Kurosawa, which will be getting the Blu-Ray 4k release from the BFI at the end of January https://shop.bfi.org.uk/stray-dog-blu-ray.html?srsltid=AfmBOoqdYc1IK3H7qU94DGeUT_IchsMvVpc1aOvrb_FPxBn4Y8_L1tFd
As ever my review will follow later on @PhilEdwards 's Live For Films
"Best of all, its greatness is not that born of grand spectacle, or cinematic bombast. Hauntingly minimal, Brief Encounter is a story told through tiny gestures, train timetables, and thoroughly mundane everyday activities made marvellous. In this tender tale of the smallest, most beautiful things, the fleeting touch of a lover’s hand means more than the most passionate kiss."
boxd.itA ★★★★★ review of Brief Encounter (1945)"Best of all, its greatness is not that born of grand spectacle, or cinematic bombast. Hauntingly minimal, Brief Encounter is a story told through tiny gestures, train timetables, and thoroughly mundane everyday activities made marvellous. In this tender tale of the smallest, most beautiful things, the fleeting touch of a lover’s hand means more than the most passionate kiss." ... If someone can write these magnificent lines on a movie, then there's the proof that cinema can be LARGER than life. www.bfi.org.uk/news-opinion/news-bfi/features/brief-encounter-return-ticket

One treasure to have is a #jacquestati box... dvd or bluray.
Either way it's unique (and funny!) cinema.

Today is a great day to introduce (or remind) people to Geoffrey Jones' classic short film Snow (1963, 8mins long) about the British Rail system dealing with an exceedingly heavy winter — superbly edited as series of accelerating, interleaved short sequences perfectly cut to the music. Visual story telling at its finest!
