Comments The critical review of this film ranges from dismissive to savage. Gillespie seems irritated by all of Luhrmanns' fascinations and devices, and does not seem to be uplifted by any of the elements as most overseas critics were, nor charmed by the love story she labels 'a limp bridging device'.
Synopsis The book outlines Australian films produced during this period. The information contained here is taken from Pat Gillespies original review in Cinema Papers. The author provides a run down on the cast and key crew of the film and then gives a critical review.
