Analysed in this text is British director Terence Davies's film 'The Long Day Closes' (1992), that constitutes a last link in his autobiographical series started in 1976. The author examines the relationship between memory (autobiographical memory, in particular) and the medium of film. He also demonstrates how Davies makes use of intertextual quotations from other movies (i.a. from films by Orson Welles and Vincente Minnelli) to enhance the impact of the subject matter of memory in his own movie.
