    Gem of a movie

    This was a fantastic film about the life and works of William Scott... All the more poignant and real as it was made by his son..

    I have been trying to locate a copy of this movie for years without success. Mainly because my big sister was an art student at Glasgow School of Art at the time it was filmed and was an extra in this too.

    It would mean the would to me if anyone knew where I might be able to locate this as it was such a great film and i'm desperate to see it again now i'm older and more appreciative!

    If you get the opportunity to see this then please do... it's a hidden treasure indeed. If you can help me find this on VHS or DVD i will be forever grateful.
