Under Milk Wood

Welsh poet Dylan Thomas' radio play comes to life in this delightful adaptation vibrantly narrated by fellow Welshman and Thomas devotee Richard Burton. The film takes viewers into the lives of a seaside town's eccentric denizens via the character of Capt. Cat (Peter O'Toole), a silver-tongued seaman who knows the village intimately despite his rapidly failing eyesight. (Verleiher-Text)
