A Canterbury Trail is like a warm, nostalgic stroll through cinematic history. The film captures a small group of devoted fans as they walk the very paths seen in Powell’s A Canterbury Tale, tracing not just footsteps but memories from 1944. You get a sense of the shared passion amongst these admirers, and it’s almost like you’re part of their little pilgrimage. The pacing is reflective, allowing moments for contemplation about film and history. The director, David Thompson, manages to evoke a sense of place that complements Powell’s own vision. It’s not flashy or filled with theatrics but has this deep, sincere vibe that’s hard to shake off. If you appreciate the art of filmmaking and the stories behind it, there’s something really special here.
