Synopsis:
Sir Laurence Olivier takes on the role of eccentric lawyer, Clifford Mortimer, in the 1981 film adaptation of Sir John Mortimer's autobiographical play, an unexpurgated yet affectionate portrait of his father. Struck down by blindness in middle age, Clifford Mortimer continued to battle in the courtroom despite his decreasing ability to look after himself. 'A voyage round my father' explores the tempestuous relationship between father and son as the younger Mortimer (portrayed by Alan Bates) tries to come to terms with the bitter memories of his father, whilst still seeking his love and respect.
