Saw this in the theater back on its release. It was magical and when I finally got to visit Scotland all the elements and themes of the movie only further enhanced my appreciation of this gem. The music by Mark Knopfler, the setting, the sky, the characters, and the nuance wash over you in such a positive way. Easily one of the most beautiful and most underrated films ever!

Stuck on a movie choice for the evening, but don't want to watch something recent (and want a break from John Hughes/Ghostbusters/3 Amigos classics)? I've got your charming, awesome 80s fix right here. Well-written, filmed on location in Scotland, and surprisingly, subtly deep without being pedantic, Local Hero hits all the right notes. Underrated and not as well-known as many other quality films from the famed (and maligned) decade, Local Hero is the perfect antidote to cinematic indecision. 5/5!

Theirs something magical about this movie that I just Love, probably Because my time spent in Ireland/England the people the sky and the ocean. .Burt Lancaster is great a true classic
