Another Little Drink
A series of three film reports by Trevor Philpott
2 :The Landlord and the Pub
For many people the mosft desirable way of earning a living that there could possibly be is to run a nice little pub. There are scores of applications for every vacant tenancy. But over the past 20 years pubs have changed both for the people who use them and for the ones who run them.
What kind of life is it for the lucky few who do get the pub of their dreams? How much of the business can they really call their own? What kind of living can they expect to make? Are they able to deal With violence, the underage drinking, the alcoholism, the good customer holding his car keys who they know has had a little too much? Will their lovely little pub turn out to be a goldmine, a treadmill or a nightmare?

' Sometimes I wonder
Where my life will go Sometimes I wonder
If I'll ever really know
'Cause I've been searching For such a long time ... '
The music and the pictures peer and search through nature, from flesh to earth to tree to sky to sea and back to flesh. The location - Vancouver, British Columbia.
