some of these comments are just from chauvinistic teuchters who resent this classic film being filmed in a neglected area of Scotland (even by the SNP!) rather than the usual phoney 'film sets' like Plockton.

We in Galloway are quite happy to live in a lovely, quiet part of Scotland where life goes on without most of the crap of modern life. The 5oth anniversary of the film was remembered last month by the Isle of Whithorn community without any commercial or media interest & all the better for it
