    Nice survey and viewing in the morning before the 110th anniversary of the poet's birth has given it additional meaning. It's wonderful that the property has been so carefully restored; this was an important move and appreciation for the decision will, for many reasons, continue to grow. Thanks and best wishes to everyone involved.

    brilliant poet but hit or miss sometimes probably due to drink .He left everything in afraid to edit what he might have left out when sober. Still one of the best of the century. Bless him, he had human failings.

      Thanks David for your comment. Such brilliance is so often accompanied by other challenges. I guess we'd never know what kind of a poet Dylan could be if he could keep away from the bottle.

    The movie she's referring to at 46.00 is 'The Edge of Love' (Keira Knightley, Matthew Rhys as Thomas) which focusses on the early work and the war years (for me, not a satisfactory picture of the poet, but that's normal for any film about a poet!... but, I guess, as a way into the work it's better than not looking into Thomas at all).
