KNOX
The Life and Legacy of Scotland’s
Controversial Reformer
Director Murdo McLeod. 77mins

John Knox, a man who has influenced so much of Scotland’s history and much of the world, is a forgotten figure today.

Scottish school children are no longer taught about him in lessons; his grave is marked only by a sparse plaque. If remembered at all, it is usually as a misogynistic and bigoted caricature. I was very excited then when I heard that a new film was being made about him. Knox is a documentary from Trinity Digital directed by Murdo McLeod and presented by Philip Todd.
