Director: Belinda Chayko
Actors: John Hurt, Emily Barclay, Lily Bell-Tindley, Jay Ryan

“John Hurt has rarely been better” and newcomer Lilley Bell-Tindley is “a revelation” in one of the best and most beloved Australian movies of the year! Eleven-year old Lou’s life is about to become even more chaotic when her estranged grandfather Doyle moves in to the family’s rickety, rented home. Doyle turns the household upside-down with his unique sense of fun and madness, and as their relationship develops through adventures, mishaps and run ins with the law, Lou’s tough shell begins to be chipped away as she ultimately understands what it is to be loved.

a great little film featuring a teenage girl and her family in northern NSW. She is struggling with teenage hood and rebels against her single mother. She and her demented grandfather try to rub away but a happy ending brings the film to gentle conclusion.

Unfortunately, too many Australian films are like this - a potentially strong storyline trivialised by bad scripting and bad acting. There is the usual recurring motif - this time burning sugar cane- which seems to have no direct relation to anything. The performances are static and the plot has the occasional glimpse of pathos, but is ultimately unconvincing.

The best ad for a condom ever written. Such a pity taxpayer money was wasted to support such dribble. No way would I show this to my family hence the M rating. Would never recommend this to anyone, wash your hair, get an early one, play cards, anything

A very enjoyable movie the whole family can watch with the occasional "F" word.

Finally an Australian movie that I can honestly say was well made with a wonderful storyline. With the exception of the odd F word I would say this is one for the whole family and deserves to be watched.
