Bronxgirl48 Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WgF3b-KG2VA&feature=related And Burt Lancaster is in it too. Scots-o-****, don't miss this. Message was edited by: Bronxgirl48 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MissGoddess Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 I have this movie on dvd. I like the mood and spirit of place it captures and certain individual scenes (especially Burt's), but I don't like the ending at all. It's a very beautiful place, I wonder if it's still like that or did change? I wish Burt's character (and the old man in the shack) had more time---they were more interesting than the younger people.

Bronxgirl48 Posted January 24, 2008 Author Share Posted January 24, 2008 I'm not crazy about the ending either. I love Victor's "Lone Star Man" song. Denis Lawson as Gordon was a bit of a hearthrob for me in this movie. I used to date a Scots guy..... Message was edited by: Bronxgirl48 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MissGoddess Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 I dated one briefly in Monaco, he was very sweet. Here's Burt as he appears in LOCAL HERO: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bronxgirl48 Posted January 24, 2008 Author Share Posted January 24, 2008 My Scots guy was a little conflicted -- he was always thinking of his ex-wife. Oh, well, but he gave me some beautiful pictures he took of Scottish castles, and a book of Scottish idioms. (some really hilarious) Lovely photo of Burt as Happer.
