Western disturbances are at the peak of their season, and the combination of wintriness makes this month most suitable for the season's heavy snow.

An unforgiving and highly symbolic wintriness hangs over this domestic drama by William Nicholson.

The seasons of the asteroid have changed: the days have grown briefer, the nights longer; and a bleak wintriness pervades the valley.

Wintriness responded to wintriness.

It was a day when October, a month that can usher in wintriness, allowed summer to pay a lingering goodbye, not just in New York, but in much of the East and Midwest.

And he was merry like a boy now that the first breath of springfor so it seemed, although no doubt plenty of wintriness remained and would yet show itselfhad loosened the hard hold of the frost, which is the death of Nature.

The film is fragmentary and episodic, but its first two sections, set mostly in the brown wintriness of Iowa in 1971, achieve a tattered narrative unity, thanks to the hero's on-again, off-again obsession with a doomy, passionate young woman named Michelle (Samantha Morton).

I thought that certain formalities of the place, perhaps just a strip of three wall tiles surrounded by unfired bricks, or the blue of the sky and the domes, and a certain wintriness beneath the hottest afternoon, would return to me in the future and give me my fill of sadness and pleasure.
