Auld Lang Syne is a 1937 British musical drama film directed by James A. FitzPatrick. It centers around a Scottish village and the lives of its inhabitants, particularly a young man torn between his desire to leave for the city and his loyalty to his home and sweetheart. The film's title is taken from the famous Scots-language poem of the same name, traditionally sung at the stroke of midnight on New Year's Eve (Hogmanay) in many English-speaking cultures, and its themes of remembrance and friendship are central to the narrative. The film attempts to capture the spirit and traditions of rural Scotland during the period.
