Great to see that Dream Horse's the frontrunner at this year's #BaftaCymru Awards! But disheartening to see that have scrapped the Original Music category this year – surely music in Wales deserves better?

Terence Davies is one of the greatest directors working today, and BENEDICTION, his latest, is one of his best films. Don’t miss it.

Unbound by time, gripped by trauma, the devastating BENEDICTION is a film about art and war, poetry and music, love and death, not in succession, but all at once.

Terence Davies’s latest triumph, BENEDICTION, is a rhapsodic portrayal of a milieu in which words are wielded like weapons by people who might otherwise be pariahs. Read Keith Uhlich's review.

Behold: 2022's best film to date, a mix of brittle gay wit, Catholic guilt, war picture, and cheekbones. I review Terence Davies' BENEDICTION.

Terence Davies’ Siegfried Sassoon bio-drama, BENEDICTION, is hushed & decorous to a fault. But the director’s first overtly queer film, opening June 3, packs stealth emotional power in the sadness & yearning of Jack Lowden’s performance. My review

The solitary life of Siegfried Sassoon: Terence Davies’s Benediction is both a biopic of the wartime poet and an outsider’s restrained self-portrait, writes David Sexton.

thetimes.co.uk/article/benedi I loved this film, partially for its refusal to be what you want it to be, but also because Lowden is terrific, and because the poetry remains monumental.

BENEDICTION, Terence Davies' Sassoon biopic, is out in cinemas today.
I'm really proud of the music team and to have been part of this beautiful piece of filmmaking. Haunting, deeply sad and surprisingly funny given the subject matter, it's really worth catching on the big screen
