Review of Newcastle (2008) by Ashley T — 14 Nov 2009
This movie deserved to do much better at the box office. I think it suffered from the cringe factor provoked by the "i want to kill myself" nature of australian film making in the last couple of years.
in time this will be seen as the boy's own puberty blues. the filming is beautiful, including some great surf scenes... but it does expose some of the ugliness of young aussie men.
