Stone of Destiny Trailer Online

By Rodney - December 23, 2008 - 20:20 America/Montreal

RowThree describes it:

The comedy, which premiered at the Edinburgh Film Festival earlier this year, tells the true story of a Ian Hamilton and his group of friends who reignited Scottish national pride in the 50s with a trip to England to steal back the Stone of Scone. The film, which features an excellent cast of up and comers including Charlie Cox (who was excellent as Tristan in last year’s Stardust), Kate Mara, Billy Boyd and Robert Carlyle is a whole lot of fun

The movie does look to have a lot of charm. I think I will try and catch it when it comes around these parts.

The film openned already in the UK but will be getting a Canadian release February 20th, 2009. No word as to whether this will be released in the US.

    Interesting. I’d have preferred they refer to it as the Stone of Scone, simply because that’s funnier, but otherwise it seems like a solid film (which I assume is based on the real theft of the Stone a number of years back).

    Was that a really badly edited trailer? Cast looks interesting.

    I’d met one of the men involved in this adventure. He spoke at a dinner I attended - at the time I thought “what a fanatastic story - it should be a movie” I’m so excited to see that it has been made. I am looking forward to seeing it.

    How can I find out if this movie will be playing in the United States? If not, where can I buy it?
