This is one of my all time favourite films. Set in the remotest and most beautiful of the Scottish highlands scenery in all its rugged majesty, the story follows two stranger who meet in a transport cafe both heading in the same direction. One hell bent on revenge for the betrayal of his lover, the other fleeing a vengeful cukolded husband of great underworld power and influence. They run out of petrol nad happen unpon a small commune, an odd mixture of life's emotional casualties finding solace and confort in their mutual tolerance and support where, after an initial awkward start, they are welcomed and invited to stay for a while. Here the story unfolds exploring the ideas of love, sexuality, betrayal, jealousy and fear from all perspectives through the characters, intermmigled with some rather beautiful Pagan and supernatural condiments. This is a thought provoking and intelligent film, a real credit to the British film industry.Read full review
I have watched this movie quite a few times now and find it amusing and slightly addictive . The movie starts well but gets boring towards the second half and is bizzare almost with a strange set of people in the movie. Alistair Mc Kenzie is the star here. The crazy game keeper is the number 2 star, all the other actors are lame except maybe Mr J Phillips . Scotland at it's best...Or maybe worst..
The condition and quality of the DVD was fine. It was the actual film that I was very disappointed in. I bought it because I love Alistair MacLaine (he'll always be my Archie from Monarch of the Glen) but it was the biggest load of rubbish I've watched in a long time and if anybody's thinking of buying it to watch, don't bother!
