The Master of Ballantrae (1984 TV Movie)

1984 version of The Master Of Ballantrae is average

[7/10 · 26 February 2012]

I watched this movie again a few days ago and I marvel at the settings and the huge excellent cast of the 1984 version of The Master of Ballantrae.As far as the writing or the screenplay of this classic,it is not very good.The movie rambled and was a bit confusing at times.Put that aside and watch the movie because of wonderful actors like Michael York,John Gielgud,Finola Huges,Timothy Dalton to name a few.I just watched Michael York,Richard Jordan and Jenny Agutter in the 1976 science fiction classic "Logan's Run".Back to The Master of Ballantrae I give a thumbs up for the costumes,sets,location scenery and the actors.I have this movie.
