Review of Somersault (2004) by Gareth D — 10 Jan 2009

One of the best films i've ever seen. I just saw it for the second time and was blown away again. abbie cornish is great and carries the movie as a lonely teen wanting to be loved by someone, anyone.

she is forced to run away after her mum kicks her out and her journey is photograped beautifully in NSW's blue mountains. cate shortland has made a lyrical dreamy film that cares for this young girl being abused in a mans world.

definitely see this movie.
