True History of the Kelly Gang (2019)

This really was awfully disappointing. I’ve read and enjoyed Peter Carey’s book of the same name that supposedly the film was based on, but there’s a lot in the film I don’t recall from that book, nor did some of it align with my general understanding of the saga of Edward Kelly.

It seemed to have been laid on with a trowel, eschewing subtlety for heavy handed sensationalism. Many of the settings didn’t look right for the hills of Beveridge through to the north eastern Victorian high country.. Maybe it’s a story that would better suit say 6 x 1 hour episodes rather than trying to jam it into 2½ hours and failing. The young and adult Ned Kelly were not believably the same person.

I liked Essie Davis as Ellen Kelly, and Josephine Blazier as Kate Kelly was convincing. Thereafter the roles failed to convince, let down by the screenplay, the settings and the lack of alignment with the generally accepted understanding of what happened.

Not much to recommend it. I gave it 6! Why? Loyalty to an Australian movie? Sadly it is part of what’s wrong with Aust movies. Govt supported (federal AND states, which have bureaucratic hide-bound regulations on content). Was this the director’s first film? Looked like it. Far too long at 124 mins. I frequently looked at my watch, which is NOT a good thing. 

Funereal sound track made me want to leave. In fact I almost did half way through because the plot was getting nowhere. The first half with young Ned was to me unnecessary and the all too brief role of ‘our Rusty’ Crowe the only good part. Ned is known for his bad guy stuff, of which in the second half there is little. The female clothing stuff?! Where did THAT come from? A very seld-indulgent movie. Directors who do that show contempt for their audiences. I will lower my score to 2.
