About The Widower
Neville and Blake, a father and son coming to terms with the loss of their wife and mother Mary. When Neville is diagnosed as terminally ill his son Blake returns from boarding school and their unresolved feelings of loss re-surface. An unconventional and unique film that uses music and poetry as the narrative rather than dialogue, creating an emotionally insightful human drama.
Directed by Kevin Lucas, The Widower leans on a strong ensemble — Chris Haywood, Frances Rings, Matt Dyall — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about screen titles of 2004.
