YOURS, AL starring Canadian icon Gordon Pinsent, is an evocative film that captures, interprets and celebrates the life and work of one of Canada's most significant poets and literary geniuses, Al Purdy (1918-2000). Actor Gordon Pinsent movingly captures the essence of the poet in this drama set in a metaphorical, abandoned house, which comes to life as Al returns to read, write and remember his favourite poems.

  • Great, very touching, nice tribute to Al.

  • beautiful

  • I hear that Gordon Pinsent had crew members in tears during this shot.

  • I saw Al Purdy read this on TV some years ago. The show was Imprint on TVO. Its one of my favourites of Al Purdy.
