DVD : Looking For Alibrandi [2000]
Based on Melina Marchetta's great novel of the same name, I'm glad to say the producers of this movie had the sense to get Marchetta to write the screenplay. She has tweaked the story a little to achieve the right pace for the screen, but the overall sense of the characters and their development is retained.
Josie Alibrandi's story is one I can relate to deeply, being of mixed racial heritage & growing up in Australia during the same period as the book is set. I'm glad to say that it now seems incomprehensible that such racism could occur in our society, even only twenty years on, but the book & film still document a time in our history that is worth remembering - hopefully as a means of preventing a return to such prejudice.
But don't get me ... Read More:

Writer John Doyle has created a superb drama covering the lives of six young Australians captured by the Japanese Emperial Army during the Second World War. Using flashbacks to give insight into the men during the internment and also more than fifty years later, the horror of the lasting effects of such an ordeal are brought home. While not bearing the accuracy of a documentary, this series describes the semi-historical events with warmth and honesty. The performances from all cast members are excellent and the series is well crafted. A really excellent work.

Well I don't care what the other reviewer said... this is a FIVE STAR series for me. I watched this weekly on Australian TV, on the ABC, in the early nineties, 1992 I think, from memory. I LOVED IT and it was compulsive viewing. It stared Ernie Dingo, an Australian Aboriginal comedian/actor, in a dramatic role for a change. It also stared a pale, slightly strange-looking, unknown Australian actress called Cate Blanchett! This would have been the first thing I ever saw her in and way before she was famous. I do remember it fondly and remember the story - the love story and the murder/thriller story - and couldn't wait each week to see what was going to happen. The TV series was called HEARTLAND in Australia and I have searched in vain all these years for ... Read More:
