Overlong and dullish outdated pioneering movie about life on an isolated Australian outback cattle station (large ranch) in the early 1900s. Go to Full Review

Rax R Sep 25 Currently watching 'We of the Never Never' on DVD at Jeannie's Kitchen, Mataranka Homestead NT, where the movie was actually filmed - and they still have the replica Homestead standing. The movie plays daily at noon in the bar See more 10/17/2014 The film doesn't quite hold up as it did 30 years ago due to the pieces of filler somewhat found in the movie. However, in the Land Down Under, it was certainly a big film at the time. We of the Never Never doesn't quite have stars that are the most engaging, but they all put in their money's worth, along with a down-to-earth plot to boot. See more 09/30/2012 I just watched the DVD. Refreshing to see a really great movie with no special effects. A really good watch and a very believable story. See more 11/13/2008 The beautiful soundtrack of oboe & bassoon really gets in deep. I guess I'll have to read the book now. Great acting. Pleasantly surprised. See more 11/01/2008 Very enjoyable film about the beaty and hardship of outback Australia and one woman's true story of challenging the land and the people who lived there. The book delved more into the characters but I though the film captured most very well and conveyed the isolation she felt and the toughness of the environment and expectations she faced. Oh yeah- and I admit it - I cried a little at the end!! See more 06/02/2008 A good dramatisation of the novel. It shows the struggle of people to fit into difficult environments and highlightd the advertsities faced in isolated communites. See more Read all reviews
