Very early Michael Powell film - a moving and interesting look at residents of a remote Scottish island coming to terms that their way of life, in the words of Dads Army John Laurie is "doooooomed!" The locations are stunning of course and there are some flashes of the inventive visual style that Powell would develop further, but there is some embarrassingly clunky dialogue and acting which takes away from the film.
