    Favourite kilted movies...

    Maybe this has been done before. I did a search, and didn't see this thread listed already. Here we go!

    What is your favourite movie involving one or more kilted characters?

    Mine is, of course, Highlander. That movie has always done it for me, and the directors cut is great!

    No question, the greatest kilted movie ever made is Tunes of Glory:

    Besides, it is my all-time favourite movie.

    haha I love Formula 51/51st State!

    That's in my list, as well as Rob Roy and Braveheart (yes yes, I know I know...)

    Ah, Highlander- what other movie in the world has a Scot playing an Egyptian with a Spanish name that carries a Japanese sword and a Frenchman playing a Scot? One of my favorite movies still. I loved Braveheart despite the inaccuracies (and the ignorami who keep telling me that that movie is why I wear a kilt) but I think Highlander would probably still be my favorite.

    Another vote for "I know where I'm going" (charming movie) and "Highlander".

    Also like "Rob Roy" and "Four Weddings and a Funeral"

    Wow. You guys have listed all of my faves except Braveheart (yes I know it's inaccurate). So there's Braveheart, Rob Roy, Formalua 51, and Highlander (still need to buy that one).
