Review of Beautiful Kate (2009) by Waylon S — 17 Jul 2010

Beautiful Kate is a beautiful adaptation of an American novel by Newton Thornburg. It is a dark challenging movie about the sins of a family, at times it is very confronting but also very rewarding for Australian film.

It's one of my favorites for 2009. Ben Mendelsohn gives an amazing performance in the film, one of the best Australian actors out there. He gives a poignant performance that I really enjoyed. I couldn't keep my eyes off of Beautiful Kate, who is played perfectly by Sophie Lowe.

I Loved movie, and give it 5 stars, I would love to see more Aussie films like this one, challenging and beautifully shot.
