Gaelic-Celtic Epiphany

Perhaps due to listening to Mark Hunter's fine, Tartan Podcast it's got me thinking of more things Scottish and particularly, films. Two masterpieces of cinema totally unalike and unrelated other than being stories about Scotland are Local Hero and Trainspotting. I just watched Trainspotting again last night. If you haven't seen either of these movies please do so. Please note that Trainspotting is not an ideal family picture due to strong subject matter, images, and language.

The third film I mentioned is Irish and another wonderful story with great music and a charming cast of "unknowns", with a very much "known" director-Alan Parker.
