Great quality film. Film was very engaging, the story was very believable, of the time, unfortunately. The characters kind of swept you up into the story, and you almost felt you were there, going through all the good, and the bad times with them. The scenery of the island was a stunning backdrop to it all, and you felt you wanted to go there too. All in all a very enjoyable film, and I would highly recommend it.

The pace of the story matched the Harris island setting. With a beautiful, scenic backdrop throughout, the characters were key to an enjoyable and gentle storyline with its quiet humour and a degree of drama. Of course the fact my mother was there to see the original rocket post launch added to my enjoyment

Having been an extra in this film, which as far as I am aware has never been on general release, and shown only a very few times in exclusive venues, I have been desperate to get my hands on a copy. The scenery (actually filmed on the island of Taransay, not Scarp) is stunning, and the story had great potential. However, the acting is very stilted and a bit uncomfortable to watch. As a conversation piece, this dvd is well worth having, but unfortunately its not going to set the world alight.
Contrary to the last review I read, I really enjoyed this film and everyone i know who has seen it loved it. Amazing scenery coupled with light humour and a good old fashioned romance makes this film a must-see. It's more than likely to bring a tear to your eye and it's a film that you could watch with the whole family (a rarity these days). The only downside to it is, although it's based on a true story it's a little far-fetched in its ending, however i don't feel this detracts too much from the overall effect. Give it a try, you won't be disappointed!
