Beautifully made film - one of Ken G Hall's best. Simple story that borrows from Call of the Wild, the story of Chud the kangaroo who really goes through the wringer. Mum killed, finds nice family, tortured by local, threatened with death, escapes to circus, tortured again, chased again. It's full on.
Brian Abbott has a nice speaking voice and odd teeth. he'd be dead soon afte this, drowned. Gwen Munro is winning. I liked their relationship - grown ups. She works for the circus. He's a farmer with a mum.
Colourful clrcus folk. People like Ron Whelan and Joe Valli.
A really lovely film.
