The Aborigines children, through the eyes of MOLLY, is the plot. It was a book by Phillip Noyce that received very little attention...until the 2002 film came out. Peter Gabriel composed the soundtrack...quality. I simply do not comprehend, after introducing this fine film in sosh! classes, even how it was filmed...with actors. You WILL have a tear or three...want to "yell" in disgust at how the Aborginies children were really treated by the Australian "government" some years ago...like our Native American children were treated in the late 19th century. Follow Molly, an actor, who rarely smiles. Another intruging character is the Aboriginal tracker...rarely says a word...but wait.
I will not give away any more of the plot. You WILL not forget the film...and Molly! Of course, as always, YOU decide...YOU do your own thinking.
Just noticed that this film is on STARZ this week! (August 1st)
