I too was moved when I saw it.
It truly is a GREAT Movie!
Another movie I would recommend is Waking Ned Devine.
It captures the Irish people and their interaction with each other
in a contemporary setting. It too is one of my favorites.
A good Scottish movie is Local Hero. It also gives a good look
at the 80’s culture and how Scotland (any place that makes you feel at home)
can change you.
Waking Ned is very good. Loch ness is a nice family film, with the same message as Local Hero. Sadly no kilts.
