Patrick Carey (cinematographer) Patrick Carey (1916 in London – 1996) is a British filmmaker. His mother, Mia 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 brother was Denis Carey (actor). The family moved back to Ireland in 1923 when his father 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'.
