CD-Rom Review: 'Rob Roy Legend of the Mist'

Without shedding any light on what a Scot wears beneath his kilt, this disc offers a look at the making of the epic romance Rob Roy. Providing a wee bit of context, Legend spotlights Scottish history by briefly detailing clan lineage, as well as famous places, events, mysteries, and people, including real-life rebel Robert Roy MacGregor. But this dull text pales in comparison with the count- less photographs, movie clips, and cast and crew interviews. The breathtaking aerial footage of the Highlands, scored with traditional pipe and whistle music, also impresses. Still, this is little more than an elaborate electronic press kit that'll cost you.
