The Long Day Closes
The Long Day Closes
I’ve always wanted to do a Criterion cover so was really excited when Eric Skillman contacted me to work on the cover for The Long Day Closes by British filmmaker Terence Davies. The film was beautiful, subtle, and full of melancholy. I wanted to do something that captured the feel of the film and make something that felt ephemeral or captured in a special moment in time. I ended up making a half-baked typeface for the project so that we could use the same treatment for the booklet interior.
