I watched "Rob Roy" this past weekend and very much enjoyed it. The story is fictional, created by Sir Walter Scott, but still and all, a whacking good tale. It was an excellent movie. The costumes were fantastic, as everyone suggested they would be. Highly recommended. It's a bit violent, it might not be too great for little kids.

Also, before the Japanese version of "Shall We Dance" which we also watched this weekend, I noticed a trailer for a Miramax film that seems to be an adaption of the Masterpiece Theatre's show "Her Majesty, Mrs. Brown". It looks like a great show, too.

The male lead is a Scotsman, John Brown (played by Billy Connolly) who spends a lot of time kilted during the movie. Apparently it's basically a true story, and was the scandal of Queen Victoria's rule. Has anybody seen this movie or the PBS series? Recomended???

cheers.....
