Starring Wendy Hiller, Roger Livesey
In Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger’s stunningly photographed comedy, romance flourishes in an unlikely place—the bleak and moody Scottish Hebrides. Wendy Hiller stars as a headstrong young woman who travels to these remote isles to marry a rich lord. Stranded by stormy weather, she meets a handsome naval officer (Roger Livesey) who threatens to thwart her carefully laid-out life plans.
Compiled from the personal collection of director Michael Powell and narrated by his widow, editor Thelma Schoonmaker Powell, these rare behind-the-scenes production photos show the cast and crew on the Scottish locations for I KNOW WHERE I’M GOING!
Director Michael Powell had a lifelong passion for walking in the hills of Scotland. These home movies, shot by Powell himself and narrated by his widow, editor Thelma Schoonmaker Powell, document one such expedition.
