Annabelle Wilson is suddenly widowed after a 32-year marriage to her husband, Fred. They have lived on Nantucket the entire time, running their hardware store and going to the movies every week.
While reading his last will and testament she discovers that upon his death he wishes to be cremated and have his ashes put in ‘a box of chocolates’ because Forrest Gump was his favourite movie.
She makes a list of their favourite 20 movies, sells her house and the hardware store, and leaves her life on Nantucket behind forever. She travels to Scotland first, in honour of BRAVEHEART, where she meets a crusty Inn owner named Lord Howard Awd.
Annabelle is immediately stunned and seduced by the sheer power and passionate beauty of the Scottish countryside. Polar opposites, Annabelle and Howard spend one week discovering secrets they’ve never shared and develop an unlikely friendship.
Will it lead to a last chance at love for both of them? There’s a complication: Howard is scheduled to be married at the end of the week!

Mick Fleetwood has assembled a stellar cast of musicians to celebrate the music that established Fleetwood Mac as one of the biggest bands in the world – the music of Peter Green.

Peter Green was inducted into the
Rock and Roll Hall of Fame together with Fleetwood Mac in 1998. Rolling Stone magazine rates Peter as one of
the 100 Greatest Guitarists of all time. Directed
by award-winning concert director Martyn Atkins (Joni 75, Crossroads Guitar
Festival, Cream at the Royal Albert Hall), the cinema event will be preceded by
an introduction from Mick Fleetwood. Legendary sound producer Glynn Johns, who
produced albums for The Who, The Rolling Stones, The Eagles and Led Zeppelin,
will take charge of the audio production.
“The
concert is a celebration of those early blues days where we all began, and it’s
important to recognise the profound impact Peter and the early Fleetwood Mac had
on the world of music. Peter was my
greatest mentor and it gives me such joy to pay tribute to his incredible
talent. I am honoured to be sharing the
stage with some of the many artists Peter has inspired over the years and who
share my great respect for this remarkable musician.”
– Mick

On February 25, 2020, mere days before the first case of COVID-19 was discovered in the UK, as the ongoing pandemic necessitated the suspension of modern society, a very special concert took place at the legendary Palladium in London celebrating the songs of Peter Green and the original incarnation of Fleetwood Mac.
The audience at that sold out show witnessed something unique at what would be the last live concert anyone would attend until further notice. This show also now takes on a particularly poignant meaning, with the unfortunate passing of Peter Green in July 2020.
The players gathered were an all-star cast and all of the musicians present that night had a deep and frequently far-fetched, cosmic connection to the songs.
This music had changed their lives, impelled them to play, and for one of them, inspired the formation of their now very famous band. This music has continued to rouse and arouse, and that night, on the verge of an historically dark and sobering moment in human history, it was given a glorious observance.
