Screening Dates: Sun 15 June 3:45pm Director: Bill Forsyth Starring: Burt Lancaster, Peter Riegert, Peter Capaldi, Denis Lawson, Fulton Mackay Knox Oil and Gas of Houston is far removed from the North Sea oil it desires – and the sleepy Scottish seaside village it wants to buy and replace with a refinery. So Knox sends its ace dealmaker (Peter Riegert) to negotiate. He finds cheerful future millionaires, awesome northern lights, a lusty innkeeper, a stubborn beachcomber and a mermaid with webbed toes. Forsyth’s touch is perfect: whether showing us a tycoon (Burt Lancaster) with his head in the stars or bridging generations at an all-night ceilidh dance. 37 on the BFI’s Top 100 British films Purchase Tickets
