Scotch Whiskey On Screen - and to Taste

The Hippopotamus

The wild literary genius of Stephen Fry comes to life in this feature from writer-director John Jencks. Based on Fry’s novel, it stars Roger Allam (“Games of Thrones”) as Ted Wallace, a theater critic thrown out on his ear following a very public outburst during a new London play. Encountering the daughter of an old friend whilst drowning his sorrows in the pub, he’s offered a large sum of money to investigate a series of unexplained “miracles.” His adventure begins as he tracks down old friend and adversary Lord Logan (Matthew Modine from “Full Metal Jacket”) his wife (Fiona Shaw), their needy son and lots of whiskey. A riotous tale of a mischievous, cantankerous and drink-sodden soul. UK 2016 (98 minutes)

Mostly British will host a free whisky tasting of top of the line scotch between screenings of the whisky-themed British films “The Hippopotamus” and “Whisky Galore!”
