Montrose Pictures has won numerous awards worldwide Here’s what the critics say:
“The film looks stunning, is leavened by amusing moments, and boasts an evocative soundtrack. A beautifully crafted, emotionally potent piece of documentary filmmaking.” - Daily Telegraph
“Like Michael Moore in ‘Roger & Me’ …a filmmaker who refuses to be brushed off.” - The New York Times
“A cracking piece of filmmaking.” - Glasgow Herald
“The filmmaker spends a lot of time with the underdog residents, dipping into their lives and local history to reveal exactly what the development will irrevocably destroy - it will make your blood boil.” - The Times
“Controlled, quietly angry and important.” - The Scotsman
“This terrific film tells without comment or voiceover this modern David & Goliath tale.” - Daily Mail
“With echoes of Ealing, Capra and most obviously Local Hero, it’s terrific, stirring stuff.” - The Guardian
“The documentary calls itself a ‘David & Goliath tale’ and opens with a scene from the 1983 film Local Hero. Unlike the fantasy, this tale didn’t end in victory for the little men.” - Independent
“Even more repellant than Trump is the triumphant grin of Alex Salmond, cock-a-hoop at Scotland’s great step forward.” - Financial Times
