Trivia:
Prints were shipped to some theaters under the fake title "Discovery". moreGoofs:
Factual errors: The film depicts the famous picture of the Loch Ness monster as being taken in 1942 by a couple of fishermen. In reality, the picture is known as the "Surgeon's Photo" and was photographed in 1934 and published in the Daily Mail newspaper. It was revealed to be a hoax in 1994 and is supposedly the picture of a toy submarine with a sculpted head fixture. moreSoundtrack:

Heartwarming family entertainment. This movie has the feel of "ET" and "Dear Frankie" another great Scottish film. The setting is near Loch Ness in Scotland during World War II. The landscape of Scotland is a beautiful backdrop for the movie and the character of Angus just finds his way into your heart. There is laughter as well as many touching scenes. Of course, there is the anti-hero, there always is. And the war in Europe is also a "character" in the film as it affects people's lives. The theater where I saw the movie had many children in attendance and they all seemed to love this movie. And there is enough in the story to keep the adults involved also.
