Wonderful, just wonderful... now all we need is for Mahood to emerge from his urn and make his way towards Montmartre, on his belly, singing, I come, I come, my heart's delight.

This is the first time I've seen Beckett on film! Like others, I had done searches in the past and thought that no footage existed.

I'll join everyone in thanking you so much for making this available.
