All Creatures Great and Small (1975)
Country: GB/US
Technical: col 92m
Director: Claude Whatham
Cast: Anthony Hopkins, Simon Ward, Lisa Harrow
Synopsis:
An apprentice vet arrives at a surgery in the Yorkshire Dales, where he is taught the ropes of domestic and pastoral practice by Mr Siegfried Farnon, and romances a local farmer's daughter.
Review:
Based on the very popular books by James Herriot, this was one of two films that preceded the even more successful TV series, which made fewer concessions to transatlantic audiences. Never mind, it is ideally cast and, though episodic, captures much of the charm of the author's anecdotal format.
