Review of Ten Canoes (2006) by Noah V — 10 Aug 2007

What an absolutely refreshing slice of cinema this is. Just a simple, unoffensive, unassuming, no frills, straight up story. Set in the Australian Bush, Ten Canoes tells the story of an old Aborigine chief and his younger brother, and there isn't really much more to it than that, but it's beautifully shot and the script's got a great sense of pathos and humour and after Die Hard, Spider-Man, Pirates.

.. and all the other "summer" fare, this is just the cinematic sedative required. Check it out...
