Trouble In The Glen (Republic 1954, Margaret Lockwood, Orson Welles)

Published

on


Herbert Wilcox’s film, shot in garish “Trucolour” stars Forrest Tucker as Jim Lansing, an ex-WWII American pilot who returns to Scotland after falling in love with it during his overseas posting. But he finds absentee landlord Sanin Cejador y Mengues (Orson Welles) has installed himself as Laird and his high-handed actions have angered the locals.

Trying to broker a peace, Tucker finds himself caught up in a new conflict, softened only by the affectionate attentions of Cejador y Mengues’s daughter, Marissa (Margaret Lockwood).

The film followed on America’s appetite for all things Celtic with the success of The Quiet Man two years earlier, made by the same studio, Republic.
