If you are going to make slow-paced film, why not make it depressing as well? Go to Full Review

04/06/2010 "As a whole I was pretty disappointed with Hammers Over the Anvil, while it's visually stunning (referring to the Australian scenery, not Russell's rear end) the rest of the film is extremely bland. I found the story quite boring, slow and a little scattered." This film is part of my 26 days of Russell Crowe please visit the following link for the full review. http://www.commonsensemoviereviews.com/2010/04/hammers-over-anvil-1993.html See more 10/06/2009 The result with its voice-over documenting the artistic growth of the teenager, its glimpses of half-understood sexuality, and its trail of conflict between father and son - isn't badly made, just extremely familiar. See more 03/09/2007 Quiet romance and not too well known - but I liked it.
