Brigadoon GFT
Saturday 26 January, 2019 12.35 p.m.
To mark Burns Night, we’re screening one of Hollywood’s most outlandish musical visions of our fair land. Dismissed in the 1950s as pure tartan kitsch and despised for choosing Hollywood make-believe over location shooting in Scotland, Brigadoon is still a wonderfully romantic musical with some unforgettable numbers in ‘The Heather on the Hill’ and ‘Almost Like Being in Love’. Two Americans, Tommy and Jeff, are on a shooting holiday in the Scottish Highlands. They lose their way and come across Brigadoon, a magical village that only appears for one day every 100 years. When Tommy falls in love with villager Fiona, he has only till the end of the day to decide whether he can really stay in Brigadoon.
