AUSTRALIA

Visionary director Baz Luhrman, most notably known for his breathtaking work on Moulin Rouge!, is returning to the directors chair after a seven year stint with what has been said to be an epic masterpiece. All though I loved Moulin Rouge! and the amazing way it told an incredible story, I understand that it may have been too abstract and visually distracting for some. For those who may have felt that way should rest at ease. This movie looks as if its going to be a more traditional film with yet another amazing story penned by Mr. Luhrman himself. I personally have fallen in love with the cinematography and graphic style in which this film is being presented. See for yourself. The music is amazing and so is everything else.

Australia staring Huge Jackman and Nicole Kidman is a set In northern Australia prior to World War II. An English aristocrat (Kidman) inherits a cattle station the size of Maryland. When English cattle barons plot to take her land, she reluctantly joins forces with a rough-hewn stock-man (Jackman) to drive 2,000 head of cattle across hundreds of miles of the country's most unforgiving land, only to still face the bombing of Darwin, Australia, by the Japanese forces that had attacked Pearl Harbor only months earlier.IMDB.com
