Days of '36 (Greek: Μέρες του '36, tr. Méres tou '36) is a 1972 Greek dramatic independent underground art film directed by Theo Angelopoulos. Its title is a tribute to Constantine P. Cavafy. Filmed in the Regime of the Colonels, the film dares to draw a parallel between this dictatorship and that of Ioannis Metaxas, but does so implicitly to escape censorship. Angelopoulos speaks of an "aesthetic of the unspoken." He points out that the most important things always happen out of the field, behind closed doors or on the phone. When something is said, it is only whispered.
