Martin Compston, Talulah Riley, Morgan Watkins, Joe Thomas, and Paul Brannigan in Scottish Mussel (2015)
Ritchie is a Glaswegian chancer with low hopes and no prospects. Disillusioned with city life, he goes undercover at a Highland conservation centre to make his fortune as an illegal pearl fisher with the help of his two hapless and accident prone mates, Danny and Fraser. Here he meets Beth, a pretty English conservationist passionate about saving endangered mussels from the clutches of pearl thieves in the Scottish Highlands. Falling for her instantly, Ritchie must beat off competition in the form of Highland Ranger Ethan, a smooth talking American Adonis convinced that Beth can't resist his charms forever. After the success of pearl fishing attracts the unwanted attentions of old school Glaswegian mobster Gavin and his work at the centre leads him to question his true motivations, Ritchie must risk life and limb to save the Highlands from ecological disaster and win Beth's heart.

    • Trivia
      At the end of the movie there's a boom mic above Beth's head while crouched down by the water edge!
    • Goofs
      The boom mike which the previous author thought they saw, is in fact someone's slightly out-of-focus sleeve. It's quite clear on a big screen.

    Good movie, definitely worth a look
    This is not high art, nor is it meant to be. Its a slightly corny, family movie with likable characters.

    I enjoyed the interaction between the two leads and thought they were very compatible. The side kicks did what side kicks always do, provided comic relief and some goofiness.

    The soundtrack is worth mentioning, great music throughout. I only wish there was a link to the players as I would like to buy some of this music.
