The Team at Newton Stewart Cinema are very excited about the 2016 remake of the classic movie Whisky Galore is coming to their cinema next month. Whisky Galore was originally a novel by Compton Mackenzie, a story of a whisky shortage, a ship running aground with a cargo of whisky and its theft by the local islanders which is told with humour and shows the spirit of the island people.
The inhabitants of a Scottish island try to plunder 50,000 cases of whisky from a nearby stranded ship. Based on the real events of 1941 when the S.S. Politician was shipwrecked in the Outer Hebrides leading to an hilarious battle as the wily islanders on nearby Eriskay tried to salvage the huge cargo of whisky on board, enraging the British authorities. Starring James Cosmo, Eddie Izzard and Gregor Fisher
