Death, taxes and... Australian movies. The Black Robe: French? Australian? Never mind. It is great regadless.

What is that with them Aussies - they seem to be unable to produce shitty movies. And why on Earth would they take the subject as removed as the early Canada colonization? Sure as taxes, they turn it into a riveting movie, one of the most memorable in many years. Of course, the French had played their role, and they know a couple of things about movies too, so the symbiotic relationship is well, obvious.

It just seems that the farther one gets from the Beverly Hills the more he finds good taste and insight. And I think Sidney is about as fas as one can possibly get.

The movie is unquestionably gorgeous, even if cold as Arctica. It puts new meaning into the word desolation - painful and beautiful with no limit. Forget about those plastic Hollywood indians. How can an actor with German name be sooo convincing as an indian patriarch?

A real sleeper. Maybe we should send some of our ultra-rich manure producers down there to make the playing field more even.

Nah, maybe we should keep that last enclave clean and natural so every few years they would send us another gem.
