Humphrey Jennings was one of Britain's greatest documentary
film-makers, described by Lindsay Anderson in 1954 as 'the only
real poet the British cinema has yet produced'. A member of the GPO
Film Unit and director of wartime canonical classics such as Listen
to Britain (1942) and A Diary for Timothy (1945), he was also an
acclaimed writer, painter, photographer and poet. This seminal
collection of critical essays, first published in 1982 and here
reissued with a new introduction, traces Jennings's fascinating
career in all its aspects with the aid of documents from the
Jennings family archive. Situating Jennings's work in the world of
his contemporaries, and illuminating the qualities by which his
films are now recognised, Humphrey Jennings: Film-Maker, Painter,
Poet explores the many insights and cultural contributions of this
truly remarkable artist.
