About This Movie

The film has this lyrical quality, almost dreamlike, as it showcases the traditional Christmas play, all set against the backdrop of the local inn. The visuals are lush, really drawing you into the world they create. You get a sense of this communal spirit, a kind of reverence for tradition. While the director's name might not ring any bells, the performances of the Mummers are genuine and heartfelt, which adds a layer of authenticity that really stands out. It's definitely not your typical holiday fare and feels like a hidden gem.

'Walk in St George' is a bit of a rarity, not widely circulated in the collector's circles. There's limited availability in terms of formats; you might find a few old VHS copies floating around, but that's about it. Interest seems to be building slowly, especially for those who appreciate regional British cinema and folk traditions. It’s one of those films that feels like a personal find, a treasure for collectors who dig deeper into the more obscure aspects of film history.
