Rating: 3.5/4 --
Writer-director Bill Forsyth's 1983 film sneaks up on you. It takes its time. It reveals its characters through snippets of conversation and casual interactions.

4 stars out of 5 -- Forsyth's values -- humanity over corporate greed -- have never been more relevant.
Uncut
...LOCAL HERO is loaded with wry, offbeat humor and is the sort of satisfying, personal picture that is becoming an increasingly rare commodity...

It's the feel-good flick of the decade.

5 stars out of 5 -- An enchanting fairy tale, all the more so for refusing to go for a cut-and-dried happy ending.
Empire
Rating: 3.5/4 --
An absolutely disarming comedy.

Product Description:
A Texas oil company attempts to buy out a Scottish fishing village for a refinery, and the result is utter confusion. One of the town's least prominent citizens owns a strategic piece of property which he refuses to sell. A warm, acclaimed comedy from writer/director Forsyth (GREGORY'S GIRL).
