1. "Rob Roy" is a 1995 release telling the story of the legendary 18th century highlander, Rob Roy, an outlaw who becomes a folk hero. Where is the story set?
From Quiz Liam Neeson Times Five
Answer:
Scotland
Before the movie begins an introductory statement includes the line, "At the dawn of the 1700s, famine, disease, and the greed of great noblemen were changing Scotland forever..." Then as the story starts, we see the green highlands and the words, "Scottish Highlands 1713."
The movie was shot entirely on location in Scotland, especially in the Highlands where the historic Rob Roy lived. Some of the locations in the film were so remote that the actors and equipment had to be flown in by helicopter.
The historical Rob Roy was baptized in 1671 and died in 1734. "Rob Roy" means Red Rob, which was a reference to his red hair. He is sometimes called the Scottish Robin Hood.
