Weekend Movie Forecast: Donkey Punch or, um, Inkheart?

Of Time and the City is a documentary by poet Terence Davies, whose films deal with "the nature of time, the nature of mortality, the transience of life." This is his first documentary, and its semi-autobiographical themes explore the pains and pleasures of growing up Roman Catholic and gay in postwar Britain. The Times's A.O. Scott adores it, calling the film, "a deeply personal piece of art that never descends into the confessional or the therapeutic, and a work of social and literary criticism that never lectures or hectors, but rather, with melancholy, tenderness and wit, manages to sing."
