PROGRAMME TWO

SEE YOU AT THE PILLAR

This entertaining British-produced tourist film which uses quotations from Dublin’s literary notables (Joyce, O’Casey, and Wilde among them) to illuminate the character of the city. The film features dialogue between an English visitor and a native Dubliner while old rebel songs give the film a humorous, punchy tone.

Dir. Peter Bayliss. 18 mins, UK, 1968, Digital
