A Few Days

A brief romantic encounter, directed by Howard Blake, composer of the score for The Snowman. A young woman meets a man at a London party. They are quickly infatuated with each other and, after a few days, elope to the seaside - but they soon tire of each other and part ways. Released in 1963, whilst amateur filmmaker Howard Blake was co-chief projectionist at the BFI, where the film enjoyed a brief, popular run in April that year.
