The Milagro Beanfield War (1988)
Great movie!
Milagro Bean Field War is a truly great film, one of the must see list. Terrific casting and well filmed. It may have been neglected by viewers and critics because it is about a class of people and time and place we often do not take seriously, but it is a sincere and genuine story, well told. The use of the ghost and the pig as foils are delightful, and it is remarkable what a good movie can be like without gratuitous violence, nudity or foul language. However, it should not be assumed that is intended to say this is a bland movie, far from it. It is tasty and spiced well with action, language, and phrasing, not to mention filming. And it is funny, good fun all around. Enjoy!
The Tartan Apple (2003)
Brilliant, Pure, Dead Brilliant!
Brilliant, Pure, Dead Brilliant!
The Tartan Apple is an important film by the outstanding young Scottish American film maker, Harlan Whatley that details the role Scot's played in building America and New York. Through excellent narratives, impressive visual images, and a striking cast the Tartan Apple illustrates how the traditional and historic Scottish organizations like the New York Caledonian Club, 1856, helped Scots and others create a rich community here which with the St. Andrews Society, 1756, and others continues today. A must for anyone who loves history, New York and of course, Scots and Scotland! "Weave the tartan of tomorrow, contemporary Scotland, learn it, love it, invest in it!" Invest in this one for your collection, well done and well worth it. Cheers AYE!
