9 / 10 I personally prefer the 1971 film, but this is certainly a fine effort, and Joe Roberts makes a very handsome Laurie.
My Movie Rating: 8 / 10 One of the great joys of the book is Laurie Lee's matchless prose, and this version features Lee's voice reading from the book! Worthwhile for that alone, and pretty good as a film, at least as good as the 1971 BBC version.
