Run from this, as fast as you can

There are other reviews that put it more eloquently, but once all's said and done, the truth is this film is dull, mesmerisingly depressing and devoid of any real story. I actually watched it on the strength of Amy Manson but she's only in less than half of it, and not enough to lift it out of the doldrums Anger, depression, sadness, disappointment, and absolutely no hope whatsoever for the future is what this film brings. There is no escape from the misery so I give it a 3.

One fer the locals

Wi an accent that's ainly heard in a 20 mile radius this ane is fer the locals. But it did capture 'at feelin ae helplessness an sobriety ae the broch an did hae a realism tae the ending. Escape noo!

Incomprehensible

I tried to watch this film on BB2 last Sunday night, but had to give up after 20 minutes or so. The reason: the dialogue was almost incomprehensible. I have no problem with the Doric dialect - my parents came from Aberdeenshire but were not from the Buchan area - but because of the actors' continual mumbling. Did the director really encourage his actors to be so incomprehensible? Even James Dean in his heyday was more understandable. Memo to Mr Graham: I don't expect actors in Scottish films to talk like RP, but if films like "Local Hero" are understandable to non Scottish audiences, the so should this one.

Comprehensible

Not sure why the previous review would describe this as "Incomprehensible". Anything will be incomprehensible if it is in a language that you don't understand. I am from Aberdeen, not Buchan and I understood it just fine.

Much as I liked Local Hero, the Scots language was dumbed down for the benefit of the wider audience. This film on the other hand has a much better crack at authenticity.
