I decided to borrow this DVD when I was in uni lib this morning, cause I forget Ive watched it. However, its proved to watch it again is the best choice Ive made. Because of Emily Mortimer, my beloved actress from newsroom; because of Gerard Butler, the guy who was in 300, Phantom of the opera, and how to train ur dragon; because of the familiar and friendly Scottish accent; because the story happened in Glasgow; because of the sea, sailing and navigation stuff; because it's a simple but perfectly moving story.
By the way, I really enjoy Scottish people's preference toward "wee" and "cheers" now, see, everything changes.
