It's Benny & Joon. Yep, the Proclaimers (twins) are Scottish. You can really hear their brogue when are talking.

The movie is "Benny and Joon" and yes the singers are Scottish.

I remember that movie but I can't recall the name. And yes they are very scotch.
That was great album over all and I still listen to it some.

Yes, the Buster Keaton scenes are amazing. There are one or two objectionable scenes as I recall, but overall a very enjoyable movie.

The hit single "500 Miles" was released in 1988 but was resurrected as a hit Stateside upon the release of this movie in 1993.

I'm a big fan of the Proclaimers. Been listening to them for years.
Their album Perservere is well worth a listen, as is Sunshine on Leith.
