Brave in Scotland
This weekend, the Disney/Pixar animated feature film Brave, featuring the voice of Craig Ferguson, opens on movie screens across Scotland, two weeks before its wide release in the rest of the UK and Europe. The Daily Record has a slideshow filled with images from the film, Scotsman.com talks about the real-life locations that inspired the film’s detailed backdrop, the Telegraph talks about places you can visit to get the flavor of the land, and BBC Scotland talks about the historical context in which a heroine like Merida might have existed.

Character of Merida
Actress Kelly MacDonald tells Scottish Television about how excited she was to play the character of Merida and the Scottish Sun talks about a Merida look-alike who will be at theaters this weekend to help promote the film.

Rashida as Writer

The RSA’s Gus drew our attention to the New York Times story about Rashida Jones and her dual role as writer and star in her latest film.
