Excellent Film: Character Development, Plot and Stunning Scenery March 11, 2008
This film has so many positive attributes that I can recommend it without hesitation.
First, the photography is exceptional. Scenes encompass the action as well as the land. Nothing seems hurried or extraneous.
Second, the plot is well executed. The story is compelling-- the saga of embracing what is difficult and different. Coming to terms with a culture vastly different and challenging on many levels.
Third, and lastly, the careful honesty that comes through in portraying an indiginous people that are clearly a conundrum for the main characters. How they manage relationship between each other and the people they come to know.
I found this film to be simply wonderful.
 Absorbing and Poignant Australian Movie May 15, 2007
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
First and foremost, "We of the Never Never" must be counted as a visually beautiful film, a triumph of cinematography which reveals the Australian outback in all its splendor. Gary Hansen won a well deserved award for the cinematography.
The story (adapted from a true account by "Mrs. Aeneas Gunn") follows an Australian pioneer bride with a budding feminist sensibility as she learns to live in the Aussie wilderness, at the cattle station run by her new husband.
Jeannie Gunn (played by Angela Punch McGregor) is a woman of determination. She refuses to accept the "code of stoic suffering" embraced by the cattle ranchers, nor will she abide their condescension toward the Aboriginal people, who are treated as slaves.
Beyond the highlighted social issues, "We of the Never Never" is a film that becomes powerful in its unsentimental portrayal of death. Death treats the lowly and the privileged equally, and the death scenes in this movie are utterly, tragically believeable. The culminating scene between Jeannie and her husband is very touching. Arthur Dignam, who plays the husband, gives a nuanced performance, the best performance in the film.
As a bonus, there is a beguiling musical score by Peter Best, which features strings, cor anglais, and digeridoo.
CAUTIONARY NOTE: Heavy Australian accents should have dictated that this dvd come equipped with subtitles. It does not, and for that omission I deduct one star.
One of the best films ever made.... March 15, 2007

This is one of the most remarkable films ever made. The casting - the story - the cinematography - an all round excellent film. The soundtrack adds a lot to the emotion and excitement of the story line. I would recommend this film to anyone. It has depth of meaning. A very worthwhile film. I am so grateful that is is now available in Region 1. It has been a long time coming and well worth the wait. Buy it sight unseen and you will never regret it.
Absorbing historical movie December 31, 2004
12 out of 12 found this review helpful
This is based on a memoir by the pioneer Australian woman ,Aeneas Gunn about her years on a cattle station in the Australian outback around the turn of the last century and is beautiful looking movie .Strikingly shot and with a haunting score by Peter Best it is also wonderfully well acted by a non -stellar cast of Australian performers .
It is an absorbing study of life on the frontier which while slow moving is involving throughout not least for its distinctly Australian feel
It is a movie I unreservedly recommend for its insights into a distant world remote in both place and time
