A really great film, it comes on one of the movie channels often, and we always ask each other why we don't own a copy.

Truth be told, I've never seen Billy Connelly in a serious role. I just know him as one of the funniest human beings on the planet.
I have seen him in a serious role, but I can't remember what it was. He wore a kilt in that film as well, with a black leather biker jacket I think (his usual attire, perhaps). Obviously it was contemporary and not a period piece like this one, and I think it was set in Glasgow. Anyway, I suppose I should look him up on IMdB to find out.
He always used to have long hair though. I don't know if he cut it to play John Brown, or if he had already cut it.
Of course, he always used to be a standup comedian and he has done comic film roles as well.
