Enys Men

Hi, I missed this post first off, so just catching up. Have always liked Mark Kermode and on his recommendation bought the dvd Bait. To be honest it didn't have the same impact on me as it did on Mark Kermode, but am willing to revisit it.

Have watched the trailer of Enys Men and it is intriguing - probably worth having on dvd if available (I haven't checked yet) because it comes across as something you should perhaps watch alone. And I will.

If nothing else, I can never resist a standing stone.

All the best
tjj

Good to see some love for this one. And don't look for 'explanations' - just decipher it any way you choose.

I was lucky to get to host an online Zoom thang with director Mark Jenkin last year, with onscreen participants offering their own questions. It all went pretty well, though I think I rather baffled Mark when I suggested that the wartime Arthur Askey movie 'Back Room Boy' was "the Enys Men of the 1940s"... (it is, by the way.)
