      Audience Member most of it is very good, the end is too depressing Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review kevin w Quiet Australian piece about a girl and her family growing up in the Outback, from British roots, different. Her mother (played with verve by Juliet Stevenson) wants more than a shepherd's life for her children and so pushes them, which becomes the source of friction as they grow older. Shown in America as part of PBS' Masterpiece Theater series back in 2002, its a delicate and moving portrayal. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
