Bessie Bighead
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.

Large Lady in Station Crowd (uncredited)
Based on The Hand and the Flower, a novel by Jerrard Tickell, A Day to Remember stars Stanley Holloway as Charley Porter, captain of London darts team. When the team travels to the French town of Boulogne for the annual darts tournament, a good time is had by all--and more besides. Jim Carver one of the team's members, is reunited with a little French girl he'd befriended during the war, who has now developed into a beautiful young woman. And Fred Collins makes a poignant journey to the hotel where he'd honeymooned with his late wife. The film works best as a low-key comedy-drama; it is least successful when it ventures into O. Henry territory and strains for "surprise" story twists. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
