Synopsis

Comin' Thro' the Rye is the life story of 18th century Scottish poet Robert Burns. Despite the film's running time director Walter C. Mycroft manages to pack most of the significant events in Burns' existence, "illustrating" certain transitional scenes with still pictures and narration, and throwing 19 songs based on Burns' best works into the stew.
