Two Films by Alexander Mackendrick

Whisky Galore & The Maggie

feature Alexander Mackendrick Movies Blu-ray

When you want to relive the golden age of British cinema, watch the new two film collection of Alexander Mackendrick movies from Film Movement. 

Both films have been digitally restored, so a new generation can enjoy this fun step back in time. 

They are presented in their entirety in this two disc collection, which is now available on blu-ray for the first time in North America.  

Whisky Galore Trailer

Whisky Galore is a hilarious old style comedy about what happens when residents of a Scottish island attempt to steal cases of whisky from a stranded ship. 

The Maggie follows a comedic con involving a boat captain, an American businessman, a valuable cargo and a boat named The Maggie.

    The English movie studios have a different look and feel than the Hollywood movies and the post-war themes are quite interesting. Thanks for the chance to win these Alexander Mackendrick movies on blu-ray.

    Watched both of the trailers and both of the movies looked really entertaining. I enjoyed the British and Scottish accents. The trailer for “The Maggie” almost seems like an old school Disney film, back when Disney made movies that were made with real people, not just animation, and that were good and could still be enjoyed by adults.
