The Tracker

Films/DVD Asylum

Movies from comedy to drama to your favorite Hollyweird Star.

The mountaineous country of Southern Australia in 1922 is the setting for this tale about a mysterious tracker (David Gulpilil) of aboriginal descent who must find a fugitive on the run, while being followed closely by three mounted white policemen.
This is the fourth movie I've seen David Gulpilil in; the others were Nicholas Roeg's Walkabout (1971), Rabbit Proof Fence (2002), and The Proposition (2005). (I never saw and don't care about Crocodile Dundee).
Tracker is an worthwhile movie, though I found the songs featured somewhat intrusive at times. Quite fascinating is the 53 minute documentary featured on the DVD. Though we only seem glimpses of it, David's hunting and tracking skills are astonishing.
It's sad that this extraordinary actor lives in such squalor.
