Tolkien in Oxford
A film about The Lord of the Rings.
In Europe and Asia it's a school set book. In America it's a craze bigger than Batman: one million copies sold in 1967 alone. In Britain a lot of people have never even heard of it. J.R.R. Tolkien, seventy-six, retired Oxford don, talks about his major work. Readers in Oxford try to explain the phenomenon of the lord of the hobbits, the orcs, and the elves. A literary masterpiece or a pleasant donnish joke?

Starring Donald Sinden, Diana Dors, Jeannie Carson, James Robertson Justice, Margaret Rutherford, Stanley Holloway.
Peter Weston, a songwriter, finds himself the unwilling owner of Daisy, an alligator. After his efforts to dispose of her are thwarted - there is a delightful scene with Margaret Rutherford as a cranky pet-shop owner who, like Dr. Dolittle, can talk to the animals - Peter decides he will keep his increasingly endearing pet. However, he is then faced with his fiancee's challenge: "Either the alligator goes, or I do".
