In love...

I could not hold out any longer, sorry Bethypoo! I just had to watch Australia with Nicole Kidman and Hugh Jackman. I was going to wait for my maiden screening of the picture until Beth returned from her mission, so we could drool together, but I just couldn't stand it any longer!I just have to say I loved this movie so much, my teeth hurt. First of all, you're guaranteed goodness with a picture done by Baz Luhrmann. Throw in a fabulous cast, mind blowing plot and twist and turns that welcome envy from rotini pasta. I absolutely adore any music involved in a Baz film. I love the way the music threads through the scenes like golden thread through a rich tapestry.

Nicole Kidman was an excellent portrayal of a spunky, strong woman. She just shone in this movie. She was an extremely deep character. Hugh Jackman also represented a character with multiple layers. It doesn't hurt that he's shirtless in some of the many frames, that of course, can be paused at thy will. What really impressed me so much out of all the characters was the little boy, Nullah, played by Brandon Walters. What a talented and gorgeous little man. I;m sure he's a real heart breaker for the nine and under crowd.

I urge you to rent this movie and take a gander when you have the time. It is quite long and requires some intent attention at some points, so make sure the kiddies are in bed.
