Staff Picks: The Long Day Closes

Floor staff member Charlie Nash is here with our latest Coolidge Staff Pick, highlighting Terence Davies' The Long Day Closes.

"Bud, played by Leigh McCormack, wants nothing more to do than to just spend every waking moment at the movies which, especially given our dark times as of late, I think we can all relate to," Nash says. Watch the intro below, and then sit down to watch the film, which is streaming exclusively on The Criterion Channel.
