Review of Local Hero (1983) by Frankie A — 20 Jul 2008
Sweet story of an oil co. executive's transformation when he goes face to face with the quirky townsfolk as he's trying to acquire their Scottish village, instead of doing the deal by Telex. Everyone is a willing seller except a beach vagrant who happens to own the beach.
Mix in Burt Lancaster and a Mark Knopfler soundtrack and you get a movie classic.
