Originally made for British television, Dunroamin' Rising is graced with a topnotch veteran cast and a solid premise. The title refers to the Dunroaming Evening Tide Nursing Home, where resides 88-year-old Thorley Walters. As an economy move, Dunroaming is targeted for demolition and its residents are slated to be scattered to various less hospitable establishments. In protest, Walters embarks upon a hunger strike that ends up having wide-range repercussions. Dunroamin' Rising proved to be the last professional appearance of Thorley Walters, who died less than three years after its completion. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
