This article is rich in valuable biographical material and contains interesting interview grabs with Gulpilil reflecting on the trappings of his fame and fortune. The article is perhaps too eager to emphasise Gulpilil's journey from riches and glamour to "poverty, squalor and creeping despair".
In relation to Walkabout, Baker claims that Gulpilil's "cry is not a nostalgic plea for a rose-coloured past, an argument for his people to live in isolation from a fast-changing world". This ties in with the storyline of the Walkabout and its representation of the Aboriginal race. |
