    Set against the backdrop of post-World War II transition, our story unfolds within the storied halls of an unnamed Highland battalion. As the era of conflict fades into memory, the regiment braces for a new chapter under Lieutenant Colonel Basil Barrow's leadership. However, the impending change sparks tension, particularly with Major Jock Sinclair, who harbors ambitions thwarted by the arrival of Barrow, a man of different pedigree and approach. Amidst this atmosphere thick with tradition and simmering resentment, clandestine affairs and buried secrets come to light, ultimately leading to a tragic turn of events that will forever alter the course of the battalion's history.

    Grandad signed up under age in WW1. After being wounded at the Dardanelles and recovering in Malta (at Valencia) and the UK he found himself in France.
    The Regiment were in the line and had been badly mauled in the evening and shelled all night. At dawn the next day it was foggy, and the Germans were expected to attack. He told me the thought they were in for a rough time.
    Then they heard the sound of pipes as another Scottish regiment marched up to the line to support them. He said the pipes were so stirring that everyone felt a foot taller.
    The Germans didn’t conduct a dawn attack, after hearing the pipes.

    This film must have been written by a veteran. Viewed from today, it seems to be a study of PTSD. Two men trying to find their way in peace time after a long and painful war. One trying to deal with the trauma of being held as a POW by the Japanese. The other dealing with the ghosts acquired through years of combat. Both scarred by their experiences. Interesting. I'll be thnking about Tunes of Glory for a while.

      MEN FOUGHT AND GAVE THEIR LIVES TO DESTROY EVIL. A PROBLEM WITH TODAY'S YOUTH AND MANY OLDER IS THAT THEY TRY TO DENY EVIL. Things are far worse than folks not being patriots!

    Great film, but the scenario would never happen. An Acting Commanding Officer replaced by a new one would be transferred to Brigade HQ to complete a tour as a staff officer. Leaving him to stew as an officer-without-portfolio would be disastrous, as this film excellently shows.

      Yes, in current times…in the era depicted in this film and the book it is adapted from- it was all too common. When one serves the crown, you are subject to the betterment and needs of the service. As an officer in His Majesty’s Army, your duty comes before your personal feelings and pride- always.

      I wonder whether Maj/LCol Sinclair might have burnt some bridges through his behavior in the past that landed him in his predicament. While it might not have been unusual for some people to rise through the ranks before commissioning and advancing to CO, he might not have been the best match for a staff appointment or enrolment at a command and staff college. At least it wouldn't surprise me if some of the higher-ups would have thought that way.

      In the original script Guinnness and Mills were going to play opposite roles, with their acting skills they would have pulled it off I think but having said that I feel this was the best outcome. The characters are unforgettable.

      The Argyles Col. would not let it happen. And he was in charge of Sterling Castle. FYI it had me fooled as well. However only recently did I see the director and the writer in an older production talking about this very thing.
