  • POSTER TAGLINE & DESCRIPTION

    "A beautiful coastline... a rich oil man wants to develop it. A poor beach bum wants to live on it. An entire town wants to profit by it. And a real-live mermaid wants to save it... Only one of them will get their way."Bill Forsyth's classic 'fish out of water' comedy sends US oil company suit Riegert to a Scottish seaside town to assist magnate Lancaster in securing a deal, but both men, in different ways, are slowly seduced by the charms of the laid back locals. With it's plaintive music score by Dire Straits's Mark Knopfler and uniformly great performances, this lovely yet unsentimental film marks a high point in British cinema of the period.
