Review of Walkabout (1971) by Ace 6 — 31 May 2007

I studied this last year for Australian literature as part of my oral and is such a surreal, haunting film that I believe will stick in my mind forever. The combination of the music, images and cinematography is just so chilling but yet you can't pull your eyes away from the screen.

It is quite a hard film to pinpoint in terms of the genre as I believe it's in a field of its own but it shares many similarities to another Australian film- Picnic At Hanging Rock. I really recommend seeing it, as it is famous in the Australian industry as a remarkable film and it rightly deserves this reputation.

. dealing with many issues.. but mainly racism in Australia. See it for a unique film experience!
