I came across a dvd movie called the silver darlings. Is this the same as the book? About the herring fishing in Wick? Anyone seen it?

I came across the DVD on Lovefilm a while ago Lola and checked it out. I've not seen it but it certainly doesn't seem to be the same as Neil Gunn's book 'The Silver Darlings'.

Nice to see you posting on the Org again.:)

Actually I think it is the clifford Evans one, I might get it and see, it wasn't that expensive, about 10GBP so about $16 - $17 plus postage.

Thanks for your help [lol]

In fact I think south view 7 is quite correct and I was wrong.

I've had another look and the DVD I was thinking of is of a 1940s film so it's probably the same one.

Sorry to confuse matters! :o
