David Jason's most famous film appearance of the 1970's was opposite Graham Chapman in 'The Odd Job' but five years earlier he played the lead role in this very low budget comedy. His character is a daydreamer but he manages to get caught up in an adventure involving the hugely underated Imogen Hassall. There is even an appearance from a pre Darth Vader Dave Prowse although his character closer resembles the one he played in 'Callan'.
Nogood Boyo
Экранизация произведений знаменитого английского поэта Дилана Томаса. История о жизни приморской деревушки в Уэллсе и ее жителей, показанная с яркой наблюдательностью и бойким английским юмором.Радиопьеса "Под сенью молочного леса", считается одной из вершин творчества Дилана Томаса, одиного из крупнейших британских поэтов XX века. Можно сказать, что сюжет пьесы - хроника одного дня жизни приморской деревушки, подобной той, в которой жил сам поэт. Но эта хроника далека от сурового реализма, она больше похожа на сказку, рассказанную поэтом, влюбленным в этот край, в этих простых людей с их заботами, привязанностями, слабостями и глупостями. Два незнакомца (а в радиопьесе это просто Первый голос и Второй голос) идут по городу и рассказывают о его жителях. Вот старый, слепой капитан, который по ночам беседует с утонувшими моряками, а утром узнает по голосу каждого ученика соседней школы.
