Movie
The Cheviot, the Stag and the Black, Black Oil
1974 · Drama / Music / Comedy / History / TV Movie / Documentary · 1h 30m 8.0
In their songs, comedy and exuberant music, a travelling theatre company give a fiercely polemic account of Scottish history, from the aftermath of Culloden to the oil boom. Their production before a live audience is intercut with filmed reconstructions of the Highland Clearances and the Victorian obsession with hunting stags.
