A Brilliant brilliant film - By: , 26 Jul 2004
What a wonderful film this is- out on DVD at last - if you haven't seen it - you are in for a treat. The story of the feisty & talented Syblla Melvyn(Judy Davis), stuck on a impoverished farm in 1900 outback Australia- her dreams of fame, her clashes with established mores, her heart breaking romance with the the wealthy & handsome Harry Beecham (Sam Neill) - are beautifully captured. Every thing about this film is as good as I remembered it - every scene is taut & clear- screenplay the score is evocative & memorable, the lush & beautiful settings, the excellent acting, especiallly Judy Davis & Sam Neill, would appeal to anyone who loves period films, getting of wisdom type films, just about anyone. A wonderful screen play by Eleanor Whitcombe brought to life by the director Gillian Armstrong
