Overview
Using dramatizations and reenactments accompanied by expert commentary, this riveting documentary recounts the story of Robert Roy MacGregor -- aka Rob Roy, Scotland's answer to the legendary Robin Hood. After the Duke of Montrose confiscated MacGregor's property and wealth in 1712 to settle a debt, he became a brigand revered among the poor and downtrodden for his alleged generosity (at the expense of the rich).
