Leave your thoughts about Hedd Wyn.
| User ReviewPrivate UI kinda have to rate this highly. I was production co-ordinator on it. |
| User ReviewPhilip RBeing moved after watching this, I had to find out more about Ellis Evans, the poet Hedd Wyn. This is a stunning film and alas I don't speak Welsh, I love Wales, but his poetry still has a strong impact in English. |
| User ReviewMichaela DA welsh language film recalls the life of Hedd Wyn, a famous Welsh poet. |
| User ReviewByron Bnominated for best foreign language film at oscars way back in 1992, telling story of one man, who was up for a eisteddford a welsh prize, the biggest of its type in wales for poetry, and a maassive honour for a welshman, but events of world war 1 get in the way as he must go off to fight, and not knowing if he has won the prize, a really authentic look at welsh life during that period, superb acting in native tounge, and a nice story all round, a gentle love story also, really portraying wales as a place for poets, and that dylan thomas was not only welsh poet around |
| User ReviewAdam RGood story. I like the anti-war message. I wish there was more of the actual poetry in the movie. |
| User ReviewMarco MA true story about a poet from North Wales during the first world war. A bit slow but touching and it nearly won the best foreign language film in 1993. Stood the test of time. |
| User ReviewJennifer Otis really good, reminds me of home but makes me cry |
| User ReviewJ Jnominated for best foreign language film at oscars way back in 1992, telling story of one man, who was up for a eisteddford a welsh prize, the biggest of its type in wales for poetry, and a maassive honour for a welshman, but events of world war 1 get in the way as he must go off to fight, and not knowing if he has won the prize, a really authentic look at welsh life during that period, superb acting in native tounge, and a nice story all round, a gentle love story also, really portraying wales as a place for poets, and that dylan thomas was not only welsh poet around |
| User ReviewJos .Quiet and moving biopic about a Welsh poet during the first world war. Lovely piece of work. I'm told to get the full emotional impact of the thing it helps to speak Welsh (because of the poetry). Ah ha. Alas my only claim to fame about the Welsh language is that I know how to pronounce the title of the movie |
