i do not expect to enjoy this . in truth i watch it because a friend know a friend know a friend who write the script but wasn not credit . know dylan thomas and and really be appreciative of his poetry but aware and rather disconcert by the man and i do not feel i need to see a twee adaption of his lame bohemian life lay bare . and this be not it . critical and yet appreciative it be . it make me cry . kiera knightley be superb and even with that slightly strain welsh accent and and it be a sad tale that they tell . dylan thomas be not the hero a sadly he be not throughout his life and neither really be the so called feisty woman of the pr spiel . it be cillian the william of the movie . a man that leave the woman he love to fight a war that they ignore . his challenge to reoonnect with that indifference be what be of real interest to this film and what a beautiful performance from that actor . i thiink this film be underrated because it be market so badly . dylan thomas fan will expect something more from their so very flawed hero and get less and and well that be how it be market . it be not a film about dylan thomas and it be much more interesting for it .
