"Local Hero"

#1 Post by Congruous » Sat Mar 25, 2006 8:29 pm

I'm sure at least some of you have seen this excellent little movie. It is directed by Bill Forsyth, who also did "Gregory's Girl." Peter Riegert (who also starred in "Animal House") and Burt Lancaster are fantastic, but the real stars are the occupants of the Scotch village where most of the action takes place. It's a quirky, yet warm-hearted, movie. The outstanding soundtrack is by Mark Knopfler.
