These guys had been around for centuries. They could have picked up accents from wherever. We shot fast — in Scotland , London and New York. When we were in Glen Coe, the producer had to run down the mountain with a pocket of change to call the studio from a phone box.
On the plane up, Sean brought out a bottle of homemade scotch a friend had given him. When Sean and Clancy Brown, who plays the villain, had their first big fight , Clancy was meant to burst in and slice the table in half with his sword. But he struck it with the flat of the blade and it broke. He was on the verge of walking.
Given its size and equipment levels, we believe it is competitively priced. Your email address will not be published. Save my name, email, and website in this browser for the next time I comment. Please enable JavaScript in your browser.

As the battle raged, Connor wondered why none of the Fraser's forces would attack him, until he came across the Kurgan and was struck again by an odd pain from sensing the proximity of another Immortal, though he didn't know it at the time.
This left him open to attack, and as Connor was no match for this Russian warlord, the Kurgan mortally wounded Connor and prepared to decapitate him, but his MacLeod kinsmen intervened just in time to save his head, forcing the Kurgan to flee, vowing to return for Connor. The clan mourned Connor's death, but he was miraculously revived shortly after being declared dead, leading his fellow MacLeods to accuse him of witchcraft. As a result, his kinfolk cruelly shunned him, beat him severely and drove him from their village.
Connor's cousin Angus James Cosmo intervened and ordered them to exile Connor instead. Connor escaped with his life, but was banished forever from his clan and birthplace, vowing never to return again.
His sword was a katana he received in Japan in B. In that time, I've had three wives. The last was Shakiko, a Japanese princess When Shakiko died, I was shattered. I would save you that pain.
Please, let Heather go. The wound is non-fatal but leaves the Kurgan with a much deeper tone in his voice.
The Kurgan still managed to defeat Ramirez, driving his sword through the old man and decapitating him. MacLeod soon returned to find his home in ruins, his mentor killed, and his wife alive but traumatized.
MacLeod remained with Heather until her death from old age. Dying in MacLeod's arms, she confided that her only regret was not having his children.
After burying Heather, MacLeod burned their residence and wandered the world. In New York City, the few surviving Immortals were drawn to "The Gathering", a final series of confrontations to determine the winner of "The Prize". One night while attending a wrestling match in Madison Square Garden, Connor sensed an Immortal close by and leaves. He went to the garage under the garden where he was confronted by Iman Fasil Peter Diamond who lunged at Connor with his sword.
But Connor countered this move and kicksed Fasil and took out his katana and fought him. The fight swings back and forward, Fasil eluding MacLeod amongst the cars, rushing at him out of the shadows. Then the momentum swung to Fasil, as he separated MacLeod from his sword, but he cannot press his advantage and MacLeod vanished.
Out of sight, MacLeod recovered his sword and then stepped out to face Fasil. This time, there was nowhere to go and Fasil was the one disarmed.
The two look at each other for a last moment, before MacLeod beheaded Fasil and received his quickening. Picking himself up, Connor hides his sword in an overhead grating before driving out of the garage. But he is not quick enough and is arrested by police arriving to investigate the disturbance. The police question him but he denies killing Fasil or Osta Vazilek another Immortal killed in New Jersey a few nights before and with no evidence, they let Connor go but still consider him as their prime suspect.
Among the investigators of the case is forensic scientist Brenda Wyatt Roxanne Hart , who is well-versed in the provenance of swords.
MacLeod returns to Madison Square Garden to collect his sword, but finds that he is not the only one searching. Brenda Wyatt is also there collecting samples. Connor later follows her to a bar but strikes a nerve with her and she leaves.
As Connor does the same, Brenda follows him and is amazed when the Kurgan attacks Conner. Brenda follows MacLeod, asking what the giant meant. And if there can be only one, only one what? Connor tells her to go home and leaves her standing on the street corner. That evening, as he prepares to go out, Rachel confronts him about what he is doing. She is more to him than a secretary, being his adoptive daughter and confidant. Connor found her orphaned amongst the ruins of the Second World War and the young Rachel saw him killed, only to come back to life and save them both.
For her, on many levels, this man has a kind of magic and she is concerned at his eternal isolation and loneliness. He lets her know that he knows by giving her a copy of her own book on the metallurgy of swords.
He accuses her of trying to set him up with the cops, but she is desperate to find the sword and only that. She demands answers, but he tells her she has no right to them. Days later, Connor meets his best friend and fellow African Immortal Sunda Kastagir Hugh Quarshie in Central Park and the two men share a night of partying one last time. Later, Kastagir challenges the Kurgan in an alley.
Unfortunately, the fight attracts a street full of witnesses. Later, Connor goes to church, his yearly remembrance of his promise to Heather, but his reflections are disturbed by the Kurgan, gloating in the death of Kastagir. He mocks Connor, telling him how Ramirez died on his knees and how he raped "His woman". The Kurgan gloats, believing that he has wounded Connor, but he soon realizes that all he has done is light a fire under MacLeod. Now, the Highlander has a reason to want him dead that goes beyond mere survival.
Connor returns to the store to find Brenda demanding to see him. When she tells him that she knows the truth about Nash, he tells her the rest of it. And kills himself to prove it. The Kurgan then sees a way to distract the Highlander. At stake is the greatest prize imaginable. Rated R for strong action violence, a scene of sexuality and some language.
Did you know Edit. Trivia All of Sean Connery 's scenes had to be filmed in a week, due to Connery's schedule. He had a bet with director Russell Mulcahy that they would not finish in seven days, but Mulcahy won the bet. Goofs Brenda uses a metal detector to find particles of sword in reinforced concrete.
This cannot work as the signal from the metal in the reinforcement bars would swamp the signal generated by the sword particles. Alternate versions The French theatrical version of "Highlander" is mainly the same version as the US theatrical.
It does add the World War II flashback but it also removes the interior shot of detective Bedsoe in his car while on a stakeout. User reviews Review. Top review. A Classic of the 80's. Highlander is perhaps the definitive modern-day, non-horror fantasy adventure.
The use of flashbacks within the story is perhaps not unique, but the concept sees its full fruition here. Such integral "flashback storytelling" would later be borrowed by many movies and TV shows the Highlander series itself, Forever Knight, and Outlaws among the latter.
Of necessity, must be seen in the Director's Cut version. Various web sites also have the further "missing scenes," including the Kurgan's battle with Immortal Yung Dol Kim, and Kastagir and MacLeod actually having that party they mention. Gislef Aug 14, FAQ The Answer to the question is the body found in New Jersey was named Vaselek hence why the police ask have you ever been over to New Jersey Nash.
