Beautifully photographed and directed film, contrasting a family home with the outback, and characters trapped as much by themselves as by those around them. The road trip does not liberate the woman much, though she gets to learn her dad's views on God. Good acting all round, especially Harrow and Hunter, this is purely character driven, and what is predictable about it would be equally so in life. I liked the later scenes where the French husband begins to see his error. (One thing though: when they got the German Bruno Ganz why not change the character to German too?)
