Film director refused entry for wearing a kilt

He doth appear to protest too much. Google (and IMDB) finds almost nothing about projects this "director" was involved in. But a headline shouting "kilted film director" gets more attention than "drunken cousins."

I looked at the two movies referred to in the article, and I don't find a name common to both in the movies as part of the production at all!

Reminds me of the Richard Harris story:

He won the Palm D'Or at Cannes and came home to the UK...the headline read: "English Actor Wins Palm D'Or".

That night he went out drinking, got pished and got into a huge fight.

The headline the next day read: "Irish Actor Held in Barroom Brawl."

Best

First don't trust the IMDB to get credits right (espicially for indie films or non US made studio pictures). I personally have nearly 25 "credits" to my resume, and only about 5 are listed on IMDB (and someone with the same name keeps getting listed in my place on ones that I have).

Second, the words I would use to describe Harris, would get this thread yanked.
