Whisky Galore (1949) 720p Basil Radford, Joan Greenwood, Catherine Lacey
Based on a true story. During World War II, the tiny Scottish island of Todday runs out of whisky. When the freighter S. S. Cabinet Minister runs aground nearby during a heavy fog, the islanders are delighted to learn that its cargo consists of 50, 000 cases of whisky. When officious English commanding officer Captain Waggett demands return of the liquor, shopkeeper Joseph Macroon and his daughters Peggy and Catriona spearhead an island rebellion.
