Five Fast Questions with Jonathan Melville

63 Percent Scottish: A Scotland Appreciation Podcast

Dec 5 2023 • 6 mins

We've asked author and journalist Jonathan Melville - a man who *literally* wrote the book on Local Hero - five fast questions about Scottish film. Here's what we cover:

  1. Local Hero is a great standard-bearer for Scottish film, but if you had to pick one other film to represent Scotland on the global stage, what would it be?
  2. The role of James Bond is currently vacant - which Scottish actor would be your pick to fill it?
  3. What is the most iconic Scottish film performance of all time?
  4. Where should a tourist visit in Scotland to get a better appreciation of Scottish film history and culture?
  5. Is there a definitive book on Scottish film?
