The War Years
The enhancement of these old BW films is superb. One is never aware that Dylan Thomas is a Welsh poet. Indeed, the set is not really a review of the poet's life and times. The films are wonderfully evocative of the time (1943 to 1945) and anyone with the slightest interest in the social and political history of this period should have this selection of eight films
