Rating: - Hilarious historical comedy
This film is lossely based around a true incident, the Rebecca Riots of the 1840s, when Welshmen rebelled against the harsh tolls imposed on them, and disguised themselves as women with blackened faces when they went out and burnt the hated toll-gates.

This film makes a dashing young squire the instigator of the riots. He is hopelessly in love with a beautfiul maiden (Joely Richardson) who thinks him a milksop. Little does she know that by night he is the dashing Rebecca who she adores. ... Read More

Rating: - Hilarious, rude, crude, a must see!
ok, It is quite art-house and chances are it will never be shown on tv more than once in a blue moon, but it is really worth seeing. It is crude but funny with it. It is VERY welsh but also makes fun of them in a good humoured way.

Rating: - I really wish this was available in the USA
A damm good film with a really good cast, set in Wales in the late 18th century, a aristocratic Welsh soldier returns to Wales from duties abroad in India, only to find that corrupt gentry are bleeding the population financialy dry with an oppresive toll system, he then raises an army of fellow Welshmen to fight back at the toll owners. Don't worry it's not as boring as it sounds, and works as a comedy on many levels, buy today you won't be disapointed.
