Time after Time, a film shot in Ireland, North
America and Australia that celebrates the great
heritage of ancient Celtic, American and Australian peoples. Time after Time is
beautifully shot, its style comparable to other films found on this
website. Yet Time after Time has its own theme and style.
Time after Time is a film that highlights the great beauty and diversity of the
landscapes and peoples of Ireland, North America and Australia. The
colourful landscapes of each of the countries is captured magnificently in Time
after time. The richness of colours gives a wonderful feel to the film.
The soundtrack for Time after Time has the presence of the human voice.
Poems and songs accompany the diverse music of the film. Although not
scripted dialog or narration I found the presence of a voice unusual at
first. However I soon found the initial poem adding to the mood.
Write your own review of Time after Time
After an introduction the film has a chapter for each of the countries shown in
the film. The beautiful coastline and woods of Ireland make a beautiful
subject. Watching the images in Time after Time gives me a great
sensation as they remind me of my own Celtic homeland of Cornwall,
England. Most images are of the Ireland most people are familiar with,
yet many images show a side perhaps we don't know. The Celtic poems and
songs add greatly to the mood. The underwater images suggest a great
diversity to the filmmakers techniques. The image of Celtic symbols
give a real sense of history.
Time after Time has a change of mood as the film continues onto North
America. The beautiful winter landscapes are captured so well a
chill fills the air. Time after Time is also warming with the shots of
the sun drenched inner heartland of North America. There are shots of
paintings from Native American tribes now gone. I felt a similar
feeling to that experienced from many scenes in Baraka.
Time after Time ends with Australia. The vast and diverse land
and its people are captured. This is one of the best insights into
Aboriginal life I have seen, even having spent a year living in
Australia. There are great scenes of Australia's bright and elegant
wildlife.
Time after Time is a unique film. Its style is individual and yet familiar
with many other films. The wildlife scenes as good as Microcosmos, and
the capturing of people as good as Baraka. Time after Time's distinct
soundtrack and content makes a great film.
Time after Time was created by Maireid Sullivan and Ben Kettlewell. I hope
the pair make equally great films in the future.
