A year in the making and the first DVD for the Highlands (Scotland?) of this genre, Skye – The Movie! is fast becoming a best seller.

Up close and personal with dolphins, eagles, seals, plus our splendid castle gardens and the wild open countryside. 3. WATER WORLD. Dramatic footage from the deck of our own vintage sailing boat, waterfalls, seascapes and beaches. 4. ISLAND PEOPLE. Meet the real folk of Skye at work and play in some stunning locations. 5. HISTORIC SITES. Ancient and mysterious remains of past cultures and of course, Skye’s fantastic castles of the MacLeods and MacDonalds. 6. THE LAND. World famous, highly scenic terrain shot from all angles throughout the four seasons designed to take your breath away. 7. THE PLANETS. A host of planetary phenomena crowned by the very rare solar eclipse, of which Skye seems to be the only place that witnessed this on May 17 2003.

Right from the beautiful opening music and video sequence, I knew this was going to be good.
PAL one side, NTSC the other....a nice touch.
The synopsis on Amazon gives the menu options and the audio content but comes nowhere near describing how BEAUTIFUL this DVD is to watch and hear!
Play it when you are curled up with your sweetie and you are both gently transported to the Highlands of Scotland, to see the land, the people, the life.
The start wakes you up with Highland pipes so be warned, but it's musically melodic and interesting. A real slice of life.
Then it settles down to be just gorgeous for the best part of an hour.
You can play it for the feast of nature and history, or you can play it for the sublime authentic Scots music.
Heartily recommended!

1.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing 12 July 2010
I rented this DVD from the local library because it clearly says, "Skye, the movie" and I love the spectacular scenery on the Isle of Skye.

However, I was very disappointed to see such a spectacular and magical island so badly portrayed by an amateur videographer.

Nice cover and music though.

The scenery, music, backgrounds and content were breathtaking. It is now playing proudly in my restaurant, ironically enough - named "Skye" - named after the Isle from where my Grandmother MacLeod came. Magical place. Magical people.
