Beautiful Kate

Synopsis

Rachel Ward's stunning feature film directorial debut Beautiful Kate stars Ben Mendelsohn, Bryan Brown, Rachel Griffiths and newcomer Sophie Lowe in an evocative and enthralling love story.

Adapted from Newtown Thornberg's novel of the same name, Ward relocated the setting from the novel's base of Idaho to the majestic Flinders Ranges in remote South Australia.

Set in a forbidding landscape on a homestead in Wilpena Pound, Beautiful Kate is the story of Ned Kendall (Ben Mendelsohn), his relationship as a teenager with his twin sister Kate (Sophie Lowe), and the emotional aftermath of a series of tragic events which unfold when he is sixteen.

Good all round, couldn't fault it. Great acting and true Aussie feel.

This is a great Australian movie, if you liked Mullet you will enjoy this. The story line took me by surprise and definitely adults only. But what a great story of a tragic family and how family and childhood affect the rest of your life, but blood ties are so strong, sometimes too strong. I enjoyed the photography. Ben M is awesome and so believable and couldn't have picked a better father than Brian Brown.

This was not my kind of movie and turned it off half way though, so I don't think I can give it a fair review. If you like typical Aussie Drama, then you may enjoy it. This style just doesn't do it for me.
