Sure it consists of vignettes, but director de Heer knows the cinematic power of co-writer and main actor, Gulpilil. See more Mar 7, 2018 One of the better movies I have seen in recent times, Charlie's Country is about the agony of dispossession, and the despondency arising from not being able to live life on one's own terms in one's own birthplace, as depicted through the life of Charlie, an elderly aboriginal who lives in Australia's Northern Territory See more Jan 19, 2017 A beautiful & important film not only about the physical plight of the indigenous but bringing a lot of emotional struggle to the screen also. The story of Charlie an indigenous man who once had the honor to Dance to the Queen of England out the front of Sydney Opera House on its opening. Now living rurally out of Darwin just simply wants his land & peace from local police. A very necessary & vital film from Australia that really demonstrates the indigenous struggle. A timeless performance from David Gullipili whom is truly one of our greatest. See more Read all reviews
