Alan Sharp’s ROB ROY also includes John Hurt’s fantastic turn as James Graham, Marquess of Montrose, & Tim Roth as the vicious dandy Archibald Cunningham. Although Archie is fictional (& framed as English in the film, despite his Scottish name), he is based on a real Scot who defeated Rob Roy in a duel: Henry Cunningham of Boquhan

4/5

“Neither asked nor given…”

Written by Alan Sharp, & directed by Michael Caton-Jones, ROB ROY (1995) is an underappreciated gem of Scottish film. It also contains what is widely regarded as one of the best swordfights in #cinema history
