  • TOON TOON <3

  • gran tema de Mark Knoplfer

  • Nunca los creditos de una peli han sonado tan bien...

  • such a great film nice to see a movie with meaning

  • the best feelgood movie ever, and a soundtrack to match, it never fails to life the spirit,

  • This IS my favourite film of all time... So sweet and innocent! It talks directly to the heart. I have the DVD and watch it whenever MY life gets me down... I yearn for the values of the simple life surrounded by beauty whenever I see it. And the whimsicality is 'just' outside reality. I KNOW about true love now. Thank you.

  • I can't count how many times I have emptied my pockets that were full of shells from Scotland. I still have them all. Need to go get more soon.

  • Yes is brilliant

  • Pity people get the aspect wrong so often

  • my favourite movie of all time - watched it many times & will watch it many times more before I die.

  • Great flick! Great sound track.............

    

  • This is one of my favorite movies of all time!

  • Great movie, and my favorite Mark Knopfler song of all time.

  • This is one of the truely great movies of my generation (I'm 54). This final scene moves me to tears and I've watched the film so many times I've lost count

  • Wonderful film that was shot in Pennan, near Aberdeen.. The twist of course is that the corporate killer proved less ruthless than the inhabitants who were happy to sell their perceived idillic life for cash - so long as it was enough. We all have a price. Have visited Pennan, but it is beaches on the west coast of Scotland that are the true stars.

  • Great scene in a great movie. Thanks for posting this.

  • 死ぬまで記憶に留め、時々見たい映画です。この映画が日本ではど­の位有名なのかは知りませんが、

    Mark Knopler氏は音楽ファンの間では有名人だと思います。テー­マ曲は静かなイントロと

    力強いエンディングで何度きいても感動します。

  • Scotland Home

  • Scotland

  • I absolutely LOVE the film; the story, the actors, the scenery...and Mark Knopfler's ending theme:)

    It's a classic:)

  • Muzyka na Nobla.

  • Its time to go home you can take the scot form scotland but you cant take scotland from the Scot

  • 0.54... I've always wondered.. is Marina a mermaid?? This is in my top 5 films of all time. Maybe no. 1. And I am having that music at my funeral... from about 2.53 onwards.

  • @theglobaltiger No. Marina was NOT a mermaid. Neither was "Stella" a star. But the two together represent all of nature, I think. "Sea and sky.... I like it, I like it. . ."

  • @LazlosPlane ....but maybe Marina was a mermaid. How did she swim all the way up the coast? I always loved the slight mystery about that. And I never spotted the Stella/star reference... I like that too!

  • just looking out the window would have sent me back to scotland real quick

  • A fascinating film about -- fascination.

  • Best movie of the 80's about the 80's. 

  • @SFFOOL76 I concur, heartily.  My favorite film.

  • Howay the lads!

  • Will need to visit that fone box some day...

  • my favorite movie and sound track

    ZZM ( Alias Mago Merlino)

  • waw j ai des frissons mark te un genis

  • i haven't seen the film, but i love knopfler's sound track

  • Stella!!!

  • Absolutely my favorite movie, and Mark's music helped so much to make it was it is.

    Thanks so much for posting this.

  • whats the name of this movie ??

  • Local Hero. Watch it before you die, else you will never have lived.

  • Is it really that good?? Say yes and I'll make a point of watching it

  • It is. One of the funniest, most life-affirming, quirkiest films I've seen. The characters are charming and the plot takes humorous and unexpected twists. It's a sweet story with no violence and no meanness

  • @GarethNIreland Not "yes." FREAKIN' GODDAMNED, ABSOLUTELY, FUCKING 'YES.'

    Jesus. 

  • @GarethNIreland fab film mate. deffo worth watching

  • @GarethNIreland Absolutely, yes! I finally saw it for the first time the other day (it was on TV here in the UK), and I'm so glad I watched it. Cleverly written, brilliantly acted, and features some of the most beautiful location shots you'll ever see.

  • Thank you very much elduderina

  • Great comments. I am glad I am not the only guy who shed a tear or two. It sums up the things I have lost in life. So many beautiful places maybe I could have stayed at. I love Scotland, Ireland and New Zealand

  • This film hit you the same way it did me. It's all about loss and love.

  • My favorite film of all time. We have all been to that one place we wish we could stay. How Mark Knopfler's score did not win an Oscar is a shame.

    "I'd make a good Gordon, Gordon." How canya not love that???

    "I wonder what the 'pure' people are doing tonight?" Man that is great.

  • A great film and a great sound trqack

  • Goosepimples.

  • Yeah this movie really did find a place in my favourites too. There's something very special about the feeling it creates. Great music too.

  • One ofthe best films ever made. When Mac gets back to his flat and finds the shells in his pocket it makes me cry

  • spitze

  • i KNOW THAT IF I WAS MAC I WOULD SELL THE FLAT AND APPLY FOR A POSITION IN THE NEW HAPPER FACILITY AND GO AND LIVE ON SITE AS IT WERE THIS MOVIE SHOULD AND ACOULD HAVE A SEQUEL A KIND OF RETROSPECTIVE 20 ODD YEARS LATER AND REUNINITING AS MANY OF THE ORIGINAL CAST AS POSSIBLE AFTER ALL IT WAS DONE WITH WHISKY GALORE / ROCKETS GALORE...............

  • Da Best!!!

  • thanks for that upload!!

  • Thank you: I love it !!!
