I may have to give TNW a second try.

But have you seen Black Robe? An unheralded movie from director Bruce Beresford, who directed Driving Miss Daisy, Tender Mercies and Breaker Morant (a big two-thumbs up for Breaker, and the newest DVD release dramatically improves the picture).

BR set in the rugged 17the century Canadian wilderness, where Father Laforgne (Lothaire Bluteau), a young Jesuit priest, is assigned to go up river into the wilderness to convert Huron Indians.

Bruce (what other name would be possible) has been a famous Aussie film maker since the days of Barry Mckenzie.
I haven't seen or even heard of The Black Robe but I will hunt it out.
Breaker and BR are superb, five-star films. nt - tinear 15:57:13 05/20/07 (1)
