I don't have much exposure to Aussie film as they rarely make it mainstream USA theater. I think the last one I saw was "Mureil's Wedding", which was incredibly funny, touched with enough raw emotion to make you identify with the cast, and leaving with a good warm feeling. That was my take on this one. I have a twisted love for the disturbing films ("Requiem for a Dream", " Black Swan"....)...you get the drift. But there is something about Aussie film that I find very appealing. Maybe it's their Disneyesque, all is well feeling with just enough realism to be believable. The acting is superb in "My Year Without Sex" , especially the the children, Louis and Ruby....where are they now?? Thank God for the Sundance Channel!!!!
