I really loved the movie Breaker Morant. I really enjoyed watching Edward Woodward in this movie. I also think Jack Thompson was great!
I think Edward Woodward and Jack Thompson worked wonderful in Breaker Morant. The great supporting cast includes Edward Woodward, Jack Thompson, John Waters (III), Bryan Brown, Charles 'Bud' Tingwell.
I left some information, immages, and video previews of Breaker Morant below.
Summary of Breaker Morant: Before coming to America to make such acclaimed films as Tender Mercies and Driving Miss Daisy, Australian director Bruce Beresford made a lasting impression with this compelling courtroom drama, considered one the finest films of the Australian new wave of the late 1970s and early 1980s. Based on a true story about three soldiers in the Boer War who are served up as political scapegoats of the British Empire, the film uses a flashback structure to dramatize the courtroom testimony. It begins when the three Australian soldiers are railroaded for the justified killing of a German missionary and placed on trial for court-martial not as a matter of justice, but to mollify the German government for the sake of political expediency. Burdened with a competent but inexperienced and hopelessly disadvantaged lawyer, the soldiers realize that their fate has been sealed and the outcome of their trial is a fait accompli. Unfolding with urgent precision and a riveting focus on its well-drawn characters, Breaker Morant was the all-time box-office hit in Australia at the time of its release in 1980, and it remains one of the very best historical dramas ever made. --Jeff Shannon
