Overview

Description

Set against the scenic backdrop of pre-World War II Australia, Baz Luhrmann's romantic period adventure stars Nicole Kidman as an English aristocrat who inherits a sprawling ranch, and Hugh Jackman as the rough-and-tumble cattle driver who helps protect her property from greedy English cattle barons. As the pair attempt to herd 2,000 head of cattle hundreds of miles across the treacherous Australian outback, they are stunned to bear witness to the bombing of Darwin by Japanese forces -- who just a few months prior launched a devastating attack on Pearl Harbor.~Jason Buchanan

I found the movie to be entertaining on a number of levels. The romance between some of the Characters. The movie was also an expose of the "Stolen Generations" policy. The government would forcibly remove children of mixed race from their families. I really loved the beautiful scenery.

I got a great BestBuy price on the Blu-ray. Funny classic movie The 'gas cash' was not 'user-friendly' but it did work.
