Plot form IMDB Australia is the story of Lady Sarah Ashley, an
English Aristocrat (Nicole Kidman) who becomes an Australian cattle rancher, falls in love, fights in World War II, and who loves the Wizard of Oz. Key scenes are the arrival in Australia, the ride out to the ranch in the outback equivalent of a hillbilly truck, the cattle drive, the cattle stampede, the Governor's Ball, the rescue at the mission, and the killing of the bad guy in the final scene.
Review Australia is a big splashy popcorn movie that weaves its way from genre to genre as it crunches its way from Western to Romance to War Movie and occasionally to Comedy. You are best off just lightening up and watching the movie. The soundtrack has some outstanding moments --why haven't they released the album?? Nicole Kidman is a wonderful actress, and Hugh Jackman carries his weight.
Cast and crew:
Nicole Kidman, Hugh Jackman, David Wenham, Brandon Walters; written and directed by Baz Luhrmann
