Please note - this review is from a fan of the movie 'Australia' and is expressing my point of view:
Australia is one of my fav movies to watch from time to time.
However, Far-away Downs is my new 'Australia'. Watching faraway downs, it gave the story more detail and explain the scenes in more depth that the movie doesn't show.
I'm not gonna spoil the show as it needs to be watched. Every episode draws you to the next one until the end. I like how every episode had time to explain more and the last episode esp wasn't rushed.
The true events of our country and it's history from that time are shown in a careful, respectful manner esp the subject about the stolen generation.
Baz, every movie, tv show etc to date are done with care, heart, research, attention to detail for the subject your directing to your audience.
Can't wait to see the next project :)
