I can’t believe Peter Weir made back-to-back films that involve Mel Gibson running after someone who is about to die.

Well crafted romance drama, one of Weirs best movies
Ben Kavanaugh
Ben Kavanaugh
Weir’s last Australian film works as both a romance and a historical drama. Hunt steals every scene she’s in.
Andrew

Excellent portrayal of expat life and emerging world politics in a suspenseful story. The casting of Linda Hunt was genius.
Connor

Lots of style but a pretty hollow plot. While very pretty, it’s hard not to notice it’s shallowness
Joshua Clark
Joshua Clark
Drags a bit in places, but it’s clever and entertaining and boasts a standout performance from Linda Hunt and solid direction from Weir.

Well crafted romance drama. Nothing unique, but certainly nothing to complain about.

It's a peek into an interesting story. Despite its age it feels like a film from a couple of decades earlier. Enjoyable, it has its charm.

While the movie meanders halfway in, the cinematography and unique setting make up for its acting and plot flaws.

The butch dwarf lesbian in this film is meant to be a male who’s supposedly younger than Gibson. Knowing this beforehand will save confusion
