Rail

Duration: 13

Year Published: 1968

Format: 16mm

Description: A lovely and impressive paean to the world of trains. This haunting film catches the pulse, motion and excitement of rail travel. Without any narration, it creates an expressive and, at times, moving blend of past and present, from the nostalgic beauty of the modern, high speed electric train. Directed by Geoffrey Jones, with an original music score by Wilfred Josephs, "Rail" is an unusually effective combination of stunning color photography and an evocative, fully orchestrated score. It is a cinematic experience, a total immersion in the scenic panoramas, and the vibrant rhythms of its subject.
