Gli abitanti locali sembrano ben disposti e felici dei guadagni che lo stabilimento potrebbe portare. Tuttavia, all’ultimo minuto, BEN KNOX , che vive come un eremita sulla spiaggia in questione di cui è proprietario, si oppone. La spiaggia non è in vendita e niente potrà mai fargli cambiare idea. Nel frattempo a Felix Happer più del petrolio sembrano interessare le luci e le costellazioni del nord, DANNY , socio di Mac, pare più attratto da una surreale ricercatrice MARINA , e Mac, che di scozzese ha solo il nome, abituato alla routine del suo ufficio a Houston, sembra più interessato a STELLA che ai vantaggi dell’accordo e per concluderlo deve adattarsi ai tempi e alla logica di GORDON , Ben e tutto il villaggio. BILL FORSYTH (Glasgow, 29 luglio 1946) LEONE Regista e sceneggiatore scozzese. Esordisce con l’originale commedia di ambientazione giovanile That Sinking Feeling Quella sensazione di cedimento (1980) realizzato con giovani attori di teatro e con un cameo del gallerista edimburghese Richard Demarco. Recitano nel suo film successivo Gregory's Girl (1981) John Gordon Sinclair e Clare Grogan. Local Hero (1983) gli dà notorietà internazionale attirando l’attenzione dei produttori di Hollywood. In Comfort and Joy (1984) Clare Grogan interpreta un DJ radiofonico di Glasgow. Housekeeping Una donna tutta particolare (1987) è il primo film americano di Forsyth. Nella commedia Breaking In Ladro e gentiluomo (1989) sul rapporto tra un esperto scassinatore e il suo allievo, Burt Reynolds compone uno dei personaggi più felici della sua carriera. Being Human Le cinque vite di Hector (1993) rappresenta la storia dell’animo umano attraverso le vicende di cinque personaggi (tutti interpretati da Robin Williams) dalla preistoria ai giorni nostri.
