Daily Round
Catching up with gossip, inspecting new ducklings, clambering over gates, walking across meadows - the life of a postman appears idyllic, but this Devon postie has some startling ideas about improving efficiency... The inimitable Richard Massingham, a doctor turned actor and filmmaker, co-directed this film, and appears in it as the testy Mr Proctor. This film was produced by John Grierson, often hailed as the father of British documentary. It was made for the General Post Office (GPO) Film Unit, one of the most remarkable creative institutions that Britain has produced. It provided a springboard for many of the best-known and critically acclaimed figures in the British Documentary Movement. This government film is a public record, preserved and presented by the BFI National Archive on behalf of The National Archives, home to more than 1,000 years of British history. -BFI

Surprisingly incoherent and boring
I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible
There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.
Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.
