The Last Wave (1977)

£0.00


Country: AUS
Technical: col 106m
Director: Peter Weir
Cast: Richard Chamberlain, Olivia Hamnet, Frederick Parslow

Synopsis:

A lawyer defending five aboriginals in a murder charge becomes convinced, through gradual penetration of their stoic silence, that the constant rain presages a deluge that will obliterate the continent.

Review:

This quietly impressive film represents the height of its director's antipodean work, tackling a serious problem unportentously and unsensationally, while at the same time sugaring the pill with a bit of dramatic hocus pocus.
