I'm fortunate in having a family friend who grew up in the street next to the lock up garage in which Burt Munroe lived.

He confirms that the portrayal of Bert by Anthony Hopkins is accurate enough, Burt never scored with ladies as wholesome as the ones portrayed in the film.

Incidentally, when Bevars had a summer job in a petrol station, Burt Munroe was the only customer who was not permitted credit!
