Description:
|
|
Eden Song is a 'pastorale', an attempt to combine image, music and poetry in a tribute both to the English landscape and the work of the 17th century poet, mystic and clergyman Thomas Traherne. Visually Eden Song pays homage to the painters John Constable, George Stubbs and especially Samuel Palmer. The voice of Thomas Traherne is supplied by former RSC actor Stan Pretty whose credits include Boon, Minder, Bergerac and Leon The Pig Farmer. Eden Song, together with Respectable Films' Letters From Nebraska can also be seen at 3BTV ( see link on the Respectable Films page ). |

I'm in love with the actor who plays Thomas Traherne. Does anyone know who it is? |

Dull in extremis. By the way, how come you get to remove negative comments thereby keeping your score artificially high? |

The person sending derogatory comments in my name is acting on their own behalf and under malcious intent. |
