Poet's Pub (1949) DVD-R
Starring Derek Bond, Rona Anderson, James Robertson Justice,
John McLaren and Barbara Murray
Directed by Frederick Wilson
Print: black/white
Runtime: 79 min.
Genre: Comedy
Print Quality: B
British novelist Erik Linklater was well-represented in 1949, with adaptations of two of his best novels hitting the screen almost simultaneously. In Linklater's Poet's Pub, a rhyme-spinner named Saturday Keith (Derek Bond) assumes control of a rustic inn. All Keith wants is a little peace and quiet so that he can write his poems without interruption. Alas, his little Pub becomes a veritable Grand Central Station for a wide variety of eccentrics, ranging from absent-minded professors to bumbling crooks. Stealing the show is the peerless Joyce Grenfell as a toothy patroness of the arts. Poet's Pub has no real plot to speak of, just a series of vignettes unified by a central locale.
