Booze for all

Whiskey Galore (1949)

Directed by Alexander Mackendrick this film based on the novel of the same name stars Basil Radford, Bruce Seton, Joan Greenwood and Wylie Watson. Durring WW2 a small island in Scotland finds itself without whiskey till a large cargo ship full of whiskey hits the rocks near by.

This is a pretty basic comedy with the standard anti establishment British humour. Nothing much surprises and for a film with such a classic reputation the characters are on the thin side. The locations are nice but really not a lot stands out about this film sadly.


3/5
