It's Courtin-Wilson's willingness to push boundaries, to explore ways in which the troubled self can be depicted, that makes Hail so singular and striking.

It is a tough film and I don't mind tough films but there's a relentlessness about this journey, which I found myself reacting against.

What starts out as a promising drama...quickly dissolves into an ugly, unpleasant character portrait about an unrepentant brute who prefers to scream at the world rather than confront it.

Hail is highly recommended. If you are a true film lover, you will want to see this.

Its poetic opening moments soon descend into raw, wrenching and compelling viewing.

Perhaps not a film for the faint-hearted, it is nevertheless an important entry into the Australian film landscape.

7 years later I still remember this film if asked about gripping australian realism. I'd like to see it again. My memory of the film is a wrenching experience more powerful because it plays with non-literal emotive devices
