Maidgethma Wonderfully offbeat film!

AboveDeepBuggy Some things I liked some I did not.

Dotbankey A lot of fun.

Cassandra Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.

stephen-222 This is certainly a gripping drama, though I doubt that Britons can be proud of it as, although it does feature two fine British actors in the lead roles, it is an Australian production with mostly Australian cast and almost totally Australian crew and completely Australian post production at ABC TV studio in Sydney. Yes the BBC did help fund the project and has a Co-Producer credit but to claim it as a British production is a complete mistake. Australian producers, directors, cinematographer, sound, editing, sound post production and facilities. An interesting side note is that the Austrlaian producer, Steven Knapman, adopted the Keven, who plays 'Bert' with such tragic realism. The production could only skim the surface of some of the real deprivation and brutality suffered in the ill-conceived child migration scheme that ran from the late 1930's through to the 1970s.

mommys_lil_devil106 i thoroughly enjoyed this movie! A++++ watched it so many time and get more and more out of it.. i urge people to watch this fascinating movie! i would like to buy this movie but have no idea where to get it plus.. I'm only 14 and i have to ask my mum first but its still the best movie I've ever watch well i think I've said about all i cant say so ill just blab on telling people about the movie because i cant put it on yet. i like to think that the movie would just switch and that you have to watch Bert first but its still pretty good the way its put out.. i cant believe the way they treated them in the orphanage that was so horrible. Going to Australia sounded gr8 when you first hear about it.. but thats only because i live in new zealand and its pretty cold down here.. lol well i reckon this is the best movie i will ever watch.. i give it a gr8 recommendation

Peter Waine This gripping, moving and sometimes disturbing portrayal is so powerful that it will leave you deep in contemplation but at the same time hand you a sizeable chunk of cheery satisfaction, for this drama boasts a finely executed array of acting talents that make this lengthy time piece perfectly believable. A UK drama that Britons can be truly proud of. PJW
