Another chance to see this highly-acclaimed celebration of the English at their favourite pastime. With CANDIDA LYCETT GREEN
It's the grand English gardens, like those of Capability Brown, that always get noticed. But, on a different scale, our front gardens can be just as varied and just as remarkable. So, too, are the people who create these small fantasies with such enthusiasm, inventiveness and passion.
An old miner builds 13 cathedrals in his front garden. A sailor cuts his hedge into a replica of his wartime destroyer. A potter banishes plants altogether.
A marvellous celebration of small English gardens and their creators ... sheer delight. (THE DAILY TELEGRAPH) A delectable hour of escapism in this loving study of the English at their most eccentric and inventive, (DAILY MAIL) This glowing film ... will make you laugh, gasp, and even shed a tear or two. Please watch it. (THE TIMES)

starring
Humphrey Bogart , Ava Gardner with Edmond O'Brien , Rossano Brazzi
Harry Dawes , a fading Hollywood director, manages to make a star of the flamenco dancer he discovers in a seedy Madrid club. Maria, however, soon tires of the tinsel world she has conquered.
Bogie gives a remarkable performance as the cynical, down-at-heel director, and Ava Gardner is the barefoot dancer. Edmond O'Brien won an Oscar for best supporting actor as the high-powered press agent.
