East Haven Public Television

The Days of Dylan Thomas&nbsp;is a 21-minute documentary film on the life and death of the celebrated Welsh poet, Dylan Thomas, and is made from still photographs and, in part, from Thomas’ own recorded voice. Join us for a celebration of National Poetry Month with a film screening and discussion with independent documentary film maker Christopher Kepple on Wednesday, April 29 at 6:00 p.m. at <a href="https://www.easthaven.tv/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">East Haven Public Television</a>.&nbsp; 
Based on the photographs of Rollie McKenna with contributing photographs by other American and British photographers, The Days of Dylan Thomas is an excellent companion to the pictorial biography, The Days of Dylan Thomas, by Bill Read and Rollie McKenna.&nbsp;
McKenna’s film on the life and poetry of Dylan Thomas is made from photographs of deceptive serenity, skillfully woven with a lean narration which includes some of the Welsh poet’s own words. These elements are integrated with a music score of considerable distinction and discretion. The result is a moving cinematic experience which honors the poet with dignity and affection.
An uncanny portrait of the poet comes off the screen—charming, gifted, beset by disquietude, driven to wild hilarity and clowning, burdened by the cares of living. Selections from his work, spoken by Dylan Thomas himself with his own Welsh magic, are alternately passionate, gentle, desperate, soaring. Together with the images of great beauty and revelation, the effect is a low-keyed unremitting tension. Dylan Thomas is quite simply unforgettable.&nbsp;

Chris Kepple joined&nbsp;Green Planet Films in 2022 as the Chief Operating&nbsp;Officer and became Executive Director in 2024. There, he is committed to education-driven documentary distribution work, and teaching filmmaking workshops, and creating&nbsp;educational programs that connect filmmakers and audiences. Kepple is an independent documentary filmmaker. His&nbsp;documentary films have appeared on Colorado Public Television, Connecticut Public Television, Rhode Island Public Television and the RTÉ Network in Ireland. As a director he has created numerous&nbsp; programs and films on the subjects&nbsp;of&nbsp;music, food, visual art and literature.
