How Green Was My Valley - Walter Pidgeon - Donald Crisp - Maureen O'Hara - Lux Radio Theater

The film begins with a monolog by an older Huw Morgan "I am packing my belongings in the shawl my mother used to wear when she went to the market. And I'm going from my valley. And this time, I shall never return." The valley and its villages are now blackened by the dust of the coal mines that surround the area.
