The history surrounding this film is actually way more interesting that the film itself. It was written by Welsh bus driver Eynon Evans who plays the postman-cum-poet ("Amos") in this drama, and it was also the final film directed by veteran Maurice Elvey who had long since mastered the art of coping adequately with a low budget and little production time. This film centres around the pub of "Jane" (Brenda de Banzie) - upon whom our minstrel has quite a crush. It has a wishing well (from which the coins can be readily collected afterwards!) and the locals and visitors alike tend to use this as a means of fulfilling their dreams. The principle dreams being chased here feature "Delith" (Petula Clark) who is in love with fiancée "John" (Glyn Houston) but he is wheelchair-bound and suffers from issues of confidence about himself not being good enough for her. It also features a married couple whose love has long since left them and a rather large, curmudgeonly, lady for whom the glass is always half empty. Now the one thing I have always hated is a busybody, and "Amos" successfully portrays that character to the point that I would cheerfully have dumped him down his well, swiftly followed by the large lady and half a ton of instant concrete mix. His character is just annoying, and even the presence of the measured Miss de Banzie cannot really compensate for the irritation he causes. Indeed, this film really does play to just about every Welsh stereotype short of Miss Clark bursting into a rendition of "Land of my Fathers". That said, she does treat us to quite a nice little number and the London Welsh choir also get in on the action to remind us, if the beautiful photography of the valleys fails so to do, that we are in Wales. It's a curious film to watch, and when the ladies concerned are left to actually develop their stories, it is quite watchable. The whole, though, isn't quite the sum of the parts and I found myself more annoyed than engaged with this by the end.
