Real Highland Dirk Dance Historically Accurate? (1971)
Found this little clip on You Tube from the film The Massacre of Glencoe (1971).This scene shows the Laird entertaining a guess in his castle. A young man is called to perform the dirk dance for his betters.

I think you do get a real senses of the history in this part of the film. The young man certainly give a great performance
The film as a whole needs some better actors and maybe just a better director.
What do you guys think historically accurate depiction of 17th century highland life?
