Whales over Wales

In 1971 a new film version of β€˜Under Milk Wood’ was made in Wales using an area of Fishguard as Llareggub. In an interview made at the time, Richard Burton (β€˜First Voice’ in this production) discusses Dylan Thomas’ use of visuals as shown in β€œUnder Milk Wood” in particular. He describes seeing a Dylan Thomas painting in New York, called, in typical Dylan style, β€˜Whales over Wales’. Burton is interviewed by Ronnie Williams for a Late Call Special.
