Film Description

Dennis Potter was one of the most significant writers of the twentieth century and undoubtedly his greatest successes were some of the single plays he wrote in the 1960s and 1970s. No stranger to controversy, he refused to compromise his art for the sake of shifting standards of decency and public approval and was equally candid and forthcoming when interviewed. This collection presents six of his plays, accompanied by two interviews Potter did for the South Bank Show in the late 1970s. The plays are Shaggy Dog (Gareth Davies, 1968), Moonlight on the Highway (James MacTaggart, 1969), Lay Down Your Arms (Christopher Morahan, 1970), and three plays Potter scripted for London Weekend Television and which played on successive weeks in 1980: Blade on the Feather (Dir: Richard Loncraine), Rain on the Roof (Alan Bridges) and Cream in my Coffee (Gavin Millar)..
