On the remote Hebridean Todday the islanders are in mourning for there is a drought of the water of life; whisky.
A gentle comedy with a little romance and a little drama. Based on a 1947 book that in turn was inspired by a real event; bottles of whisky from the SS Politician (sank 1941) are still occasionally found off Eriskay. This film is fun though not as good as the 1949 version. The story thread of the 'red case' is redundant and time would have been better spent studying the island's many characters.
I liked, 'We don't have a village idiot...'
