They wore the bright disguise of youth ...




It's the second week of the Purbeck Film Festival - 

Tomorrow The Rex will screen Brief Encounter

Gentle cineastes will hear Celia Johnson say I felt suddenly quite wildly happy -

I remembered watching the film on Sunday Afternoon TV with Anne - 

We were with my parents, in the lounge of memory - 

They'd seen the film in the year of its release -

I imagined them, queueing outside a cinema with an opulent foyer - 

They wore the bright disguise of youth - 

The sky was full of stars -
