In a Scottish port town, a young woman finds her boyfriend dead at Christmas. His suicide note asks her to send his finished manuscript out to publishers – which she does, but in her own name. She continues to show up for work at the local supermarket and takes her best friend on a clubbing holiday to Spain. She tells no one that he is dead. This is the premise of Lynne Ramsay’s haunting film ‘Morvern Callar’, adapted from Alan Warner’s novel, which Sydney-based writer and visual artist Anwen Crawford delves into in this critical study, crafting a fiercely lucid and poetic exploration of grief, class, women’s authorship, and the place of art in our world today.
