Editorial Review:

Amazon.com:
Coincidence throws Mij the otter and Graham Merrill (Bill Travers) the computer worker together on a busy London street. What transpires from this chance meeting is an epiphany that leads to the complete upheaval of Graham's life. Evicted from his city flat thanks to the antics of his newly acquired, mischievous otter, Graham embarks on a train journey to the Scottish Highlands. Suffice it to say that trying to smuggle Mij onboard as a "diving terrier" is not successful. When the pair finally arrives in Scotland, they fall in love with the countryside and a dilapidated cottage by the sea. Fate introduces Graham to the town's animal-loving doctor (Virginia McKenna), and an enduring friendship and romance are forged. The photography of both the Scottish Highlands and the antics of Mij the otter in this 1969 movie are truly wonderful--it might just make you reconsider your current digs and friendships. The story (based on Gavin Maxwell's book of the same name) is somewhat formulaic and dated by its romanticism, but enjoyable nonetheless. Slip into an ideal world of simple happiness and celebrate the cyclical nature of life, if only for 106 minutes. (Ages 5 and older) --Tami Horiuchi

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Enjoying playful, beautiful otter until disgustingly shocked!
I have been looking for good old movies from my 1960's childhood lately. Well, I had never even heard of this movie until I saw it offered here. Being an animal lover and especially fond of otters, when I saw the adorable otter on the cover I immediately ordered it.
Well, I was so upset when that sweet, innocent otter was killed in that horrible way by a very STUPID man!
I would never suggest a child or an adult see this movie! I wish that they would revise it and take out that part ... Read More

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - A family-friendly animal/nature film with EDGE
After the success of the 1966 British film "Born Free," which starred real-life couple Bill Travers and Virginia McKenna, is it any wonder that the similarly-themed "Ring of Bright Water" came out a few years later in 1969?

THE STORY: Travers plays a writer in London who is strangely drawn to an otter in a pet store window. After purchasing the animal he decides to leave the city to give them both some much-needed breathing space. They move to desolate coastal Scotland where he fixes up ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Great, just cut before the shovel drops
Hey, I agree with you all. I saw it in the theaters as a child and still carry the pain of Mij's untimely demise. But can't we just stop the DVD prior to that moment? It was a gratuitous (if true) moment in the film, and only seems to have traumatized a generation of nature loving children at the turn of the decade (60/70's). So, parents, just watch along with your children and skip or cut before the inevitable chop. Cause if Mij frolicking in the tanks his human friend makes is just as memorable as his ... Read More



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Horrible ending!
I was a kid. My mom took us to the movies. I can recall a fairly charming picture until the horrible death scene at the end. It destroyed any other good memories from the story and my little sister and I wouldn't go to another movie for months. Just a brutal, sad ending that destroyed the movie. Not for children!!!!!!!!
