Marc Evans’s beautifully performed biopic traces the remarkable origin story of actor Richard Burton from Welsh mining village to Hollywood stardom.
Port Talbot, 1942: Richard Jenkins (Harry Lawtey) is a wayward schoolboy, caught between the pressures of his struggling family, a devastating war, and his own ambitions. But a new opportunity arises when his natural talent for drama is spotted by his teacher, Philip Burton (Toby Jones). Taken under Philip’s wing, Richard thrives under his strict tutelage. But as the acting world comes within his grasp, the burdens of his past risk holding him back forever.
