Details

Patrick Carey (1916 – 1994) was an Irish–British filmmaker. His mother, May Carey, was a well known actress at the Gate Theatre, Dublin.
She starred in one of the first films of the newly set up Irish Film Society, Manon's Acre, set in north Dublin.
His siblings were sister, Sheila Carey, brother Denis Carey and twin brother Brian Carey (actor). The family moved back to Ireland in 1923 when his father, William Denis Carey, took up a government post in the Department of Finance.
Carey became well known in the genre of short documentary films, with a lyrical gift for dramatic visualization of natural scenery: his two most well known films being Yeats Country (1965), exploring the relationship between the vision of poet W.B. Yeats and the landscape of Co. Sligo, and Oisin (1970) a film which focuses entirely on the imagery created by the natural world, without either words or music.
Both films were nominated for an Academy Award
In Errigal (1970) a brilliant weave of folklore and narrative is set against the stunning dominance of the Donegal mountains. Of Errigal,
Carey wrote 'The mountains are the characters in the story, the drama is in the battle of the elements. I have tried to convey the feeling of personality in a landscape, supported only by music and natural sounds'.
