In Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger's stunningly photographed comedy, romance flourishes in an unlikely place - the bleak and moody Scottish Hebrides. Wendy Hiller stars as a headstrong young woman who travels to Scotland to marry a rich lord. Stranded by stormy weather, she meets a handsome naval officer (Roger Livesey) who threatens to thwart her carefully laid-out life plans...

I Know Where I'm Going review by RP
Romance triumphs over materialism
(0) of (0) members found this review helpful.
This film is #26 on the 'Time Out' list of 100 best British films, and it thoroughly deserves its high ranking.
The dialogue is sharp and witty, the black and white cinematography excellent. Even the special effects are good, given the age of the film. A superbly written and directed film, as one would expect from Powell and Pressburger.
The central character (played by Wendy Hiller) is thrown off her pre-planned course of marrying a millionaire when she is held up by a storm which delays her imminent wedding. Spending time with down to earth Scottish islanders, she falls for a man (played by Roger Livesey) whom she initially thinks is a sailor - but who turns out be the local laird. And of course, romance triumphs over materialism.
A film for a romantic evening in. 4/5 stars. Highly recommended.
