In this episode, the first in a new series we are calling "Criminally Forgotten", where we unearth a cinematic gem from the depths of obscurity. Here we discuss the exquisite yet obscure 1987 film adaptation of Marilynne Robinson's novel Housekeeping, written and directed by the Scottish auteur, Bill Forsyth, whose career has also been almost completely erased from cinematic memory.  Forsyth, better known for his quirky yet extremely nuanced films Gregory's Girl and Local Hero, here realizes what we consider to be one of his finest achievements and one of the best films of the 80's.
