Modern day Welshmen are not so escapist if you take these two features i nto account, one done in the native Gaelic dialect:
Coming Up Roses
(1986) Dafydd Hywel stars in this satire about
a darkened movie theater used for the next best thing to vegging out:
growing mushrooms!
93 min., Color, Rated PG, Welsh with English
subtitles, not available
Dragonslayer
(1981) This
sword-n-sorcery tale was shot on location in Wales and other British
sites, with a mostly British cast supporting star Peter MacNicol.
108
min., Color, Rated PG, $14.99 on video, $29.99 for CLV laser and $39.99
for widescreen laser.
Rebecca's Daughters
(1991) We didn't let the factual roots of this story keep us from putting it in as a crossdressing costume drama. Nothing stirs a girl's heart like a swashbuckling swish -- or is Joely Richardson's character just tragically
confused? Original screenplay by Dylan Thomas.
97 min., Color, not available
