I Sing to You Strangers

on BBC Two England

So wrote Dylan Thomas in the Prologue to his Collected Poems.
In this film, introduced by Rene Cutforth, some who were not strangers - friends, relatives and fellow-broadcasters, who in their various ways loved the poet - give an account of the person he really was. The portrait that emerges, enriched by Thomas's own voice in poetry and prose, is different from the generally accepted picture of the inspired and irresponsible drunkard who somehow received a commemorative stone in Westminster Abbey.
