Thread Name: Wicker Man remake
Subject: RE: Wicker Man remake
I know damned well it was set in Scotland. My point was that it always appealed to the same sort of semntimental fake nostalgia as "The Quiet Man" for example. I am glad you found the original, "clever, sly and satirical". It means you enjoyed it more than I did. I found it visually appealing and melodramatic. Perhaps the most adventurous thing about it was the idea of doing melodrama in the early seventies. I quite enjoyed looking at a bare Britt Eckland (or her body double) with her kit off though!
