I can't honestly vote for this film, but not because I don't like it. I do.
Because I knew some of those responsible it would be wrong to award "Terminus" maximum marks though I would.
John Schlesinger made "Terminus" for BTF and was given a virtually free hand. All the characters were real people and the only contrived situation was the "little boy lost". He was a relative. He wasn't acting which, while a little cruel, was great film-making.
The lad had a hell of a treat later!
The Waterloo shown was real when "Terminus" was made which is why so much seems dated now. The "bag-lady" refused the amateur payment Equity had negotiated. When she died the film crew made sure she had a decent funeral. That was all they could do.
The film was ground-breaking in it's way. Ciné Vérité was never the same again.
