- Quotes
The Fanatic: Sorry? You want to feel sorry for someone, feel sorry for the pack horse. Now there's an innocent victim.
- ConnectionsFeatured in Gulpilil: One Red Blood (2002)
Finally I want to say that above all, at the centre of the story, David Gulpill is just extraordinary (one interviewer described him as our biggest Aboriginal movie star, certainly his performance has to be the highlight of his long and significant career.)You feel everything this film has to say, every part of its journey in his performance. You feel the injustice, the horror, the abuse, the loss of culture and identity. Conclusively, you feel for real that being an Australian means acknowledging that our country, as we now know it, was founded on the invasion and near-obliteration of a pre-existing people and their culture.
