This is what I would describe as a nice family film. Perfect for the winter afternoons and suitable for all the family, kids included.
There's a mix of lovely Scottish scenery, a pleasant and enjoyable story line with the right degree of humour, a great cast and music by Mark Knopfler of Dire Straits fame. It's worth buying for the music alone.
I had seen the film before and decided to add it to my collection as it's the sort of film you can happily watch again and enjoy just as much as the first time. Treat yourself, I don't think you will be disappointed

What's not to like? Scottish Director (Bill Forsyth) picked icons & iconic Scottish scenery plus an American icon - Burt Lancaster. Understated masterpiece. Fulton Mackay & Rikki Fulton match Lancaster in a balanced portrayal of a quiet country life colliding with "big oil" riches. Listen closely for the one liners. And, watch out for that smokey motor scooter. And ... watch out for mermaid Jenny Seagrove.
Cheers, DRK
