Powerhouse Films Charlie Bubbles
Description
Zavvi - The Home of Pop CultureAfter achieving international renown as one of the finest actors of his generation in films such as Saturday Night and Sunday Morning and Tom Jones, Albert Finney turned director for this surreal comic twist on the 'kitchen sink' dramas in which he'd made his name.Finney plays Charlie Bubbles, a successful writer suffering a mid-life crisis, who attempts to re-connect with his northern working-class roots and estranged family. Based on a screenplay by Shelagh Delaney (A Taste of Honey), the script clearly references both her and Finney's personal experience of their shared working class origins (both were Salford natives), and the consequences of achieving great success.Product FeaturesHigh Definition remasterOriginal mono audioAudio commentary with film historians Thirza Wakefield and Melanie WilliamsA Very Personal Film (2018, 3 mins): a new interview with producer Michael MedwinDown to Earth (2018, 9 mins): director of photography Peter Suschitzky recalls working with actor-director Albert FinneyOff the Cuff (2018, 9 mins): first assistant director Terence A Clegg discusses his time working on the filmFinney and Football (2018, 17 mins): actor Timothy Garland remembers his role as Charlie Bubbles' sonMotorway Café Society (2018, 9 mins): a new interview with actor Susan EngelEntirely Harmonised (2018, 15 mins): composer Misha Donat reflects upon his distinctive score for the filmTo Shape the Country (2018, 5 mins): a short appreciation by film critic Danny LeighAnother World (2018, 22 mins): John Harding, author of Sweetly Sings Delaney: A Study of Shelagh Delaney's Work 1958–68, discusses the author and playwright's career and her work with FinneyCCTV Test Footage (1966, 3 mins, mute): previously unseen camera tests supervised by Stephen Frears, Finney's personal assistant on the filmOriginal theatrical trailerImage gallery: promotional photography and publicity materialNew and improved English subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearing
