userhal7002 Posted February 1, 2004 Share Posted February 1, 2004 Hello-- I recently saw a short in between films that featured Jeremy Irons reading the D.H. Lawrence poem "When I went to the Film". There was a piano piece that went along with this short and I'm looking for its name. Can anyone help me? Also, if anyone has a link to a site that has the full poem I would appreciate it. Thanks for the help. Hal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stellabluegrl Posted February 1, 2004 Share Posted February 1, 2004 Not sure about the piano piece....I would have to hear the short again. I believe the following is the full poem Jeremy Iron's recites.... WHEN I WENT TO THE FILM By DHL When I went to the film, and saw all the black-and-white feelings that nobody felt, and heard the audience sighing and sobbing with all the emotions they none of them felt, and saw them cuddling with rising passions they none of them for a moment felt, and caught them moaning from close-up kisses, black-and-white kisses that could not be felt, It was like being in heaven, which I am sure has a white atmosphere upon which shadows of people, pure personalities are cast in black and white, and move in flat ecstasy, supremely unfelt, and heavenly.

userhal7002 Posted February 2, 2004 Author Share Posted February 2, 2004 Thank you very much for the info. I could post a .wav file of a section of the narration. Do you think you could identify the name of the piece that way? It's really bugging me-- I've heard this piece before and I can't place it. I'm sure it would be recognizable to anyone who knows their piano music. If you or anyone falls into this category, just let me know where to send or post the file.

classicsfan1119 Posted February 2, 2004 Share Posted February 2, 2004 Give the .wav file a try, I might be able to identify it for you, or maybe other's could, too. Worth a try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
userhal7002 Posted February 3, 2004 Author Share Posted February 3, 2004 I have the .wav file-- its only a partial because I didn't record the whole short. I will e mail it to anyone interested in helping identify, or post on a common board or newsgroup that allows attachments. Just tell me where or give me the address. Thanks, Hal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
