A self-contradiction, of course, to present a radio play as a movie - but this is fun.
It gets the sense of Dylan Thomas's poetry and libidinous sensibility rather well - all the girls come across better than the men, despite the archetypal characterization. Thomas was never a great poet by any means because he lacks profundity and often indulges in purple verse - but he is amusing and this is the uncut version of his play for radio.
A better poetry movie is Mirror, but this compares quite well.
