An Entity of Type: movie, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

The 'Maggie' (released in the U.S.A. as High and Dry) is a 1954 British comedy film produced by Ealing Studios. Directed by Alexander Mackendrick and written by William Rose, it is a story of a clash of cultures between a hard-driving American businessman and a wily Scottish captain. Colin McArthur has made a trenchant criticism of its representation of Scotland and its relationship with American capital, and of the failure of contemporary commentators to interrogate the narrative about Scotland it constructed.

  • Oller Kahn mit Größenwahn ist eine britische Filmkomödie von Alexander Mackendrick, in deren Mittelpunkt ein kleiner, alter Frachtkahn, ein sogenannter Clyde Puffer, steht. In typischer Ealing-Komödien-Manier wird hier auf persiflierende Weise der Zusammenstoß zweier Kulturen thematisiert und zwar in Gestalt eines verschroben-gewieften, schottischen Binnenschiffers und eines großsprecherisch-getriebenen US-amerikanischen Geschäftsmannes.
