divine journey

Rating: 8/10 (19 May 2006)

OK sure, you know that the film goes for well over 2 hours by the time you leave the cinema but gees what a stunning piece of film. the characters are played down to a tee and the brutality of both side (natives + English) is explored and portrayed as they should be. i waited 5 months for the film to be released in Australia and saw it the day after it was released, it was worth the wait. and it's good to see some aussies in it...has the directors cut been released on DVD? i know that a lot was cut in the race for the 2006 Oscars. wonderful film, breathtaking scenery and excellent acting...i don't know why "The New World" was nominated for more at the academy awards, it deserved a lot more...
