Australia Movie

Recently i have just watched the movie, Australia. It was a really nice movie. This movie took the best shoot of Australia location, showcasting wonderful place, and aborigin of the Australia. I learnt so much about this movie. Well, Welcome to Australia. I like some of the words by Drover (Hugh Jackman),

" Most people like to own things. Land, luggage, other people. Make them feel secure. But all that can be taken away. And in the end, the only thing you really own is, Is your story."

I do recommend folks to watch this movie, as it is very touching, and it was very original. Now, we have been staying in the advancing world with technology. We own iPod, Playstation, cell phone, house land, internet, Facebook account. We have different conversation from the previous generation. We talked differently, we act differently. It was such a good nice touch of the movie, to bring back us to the life of nature and aborigin. 

I learnt along, watching this movie. I just realized there were this "stolen generation" which mean, taking away their child from the aboriginal parent. Word definition found in Wiki

Other 19th and early 20th-century contemporaneous documents indicate that the policy of removing Aboriginal children from their parents related to different beliefs: that given the catastrophic population decline of Aboriginal people post white contact that they would "die out", that the 'full-blood' tribal Aboriginal population would be unable to sustain itself, and was doomed to inevitable extinction. Ideas of eugenics and fears of miscegenation with a desire to maintain white racial purity were related to the ideology that mankind could be divided into a civilisational hierarchy. This supposed that the civilisation of northern Europeans was superior to that of Aborigines, based on comparative technological advancement. Some adherents to these beliefs considered any proliferation of mixed-descent children (labelled 'half-castes','crossbreeds', 'quadroons' and 'octoroons') to be a threat to the nature and stability of the prevailing civilisation, or to a perceived racial or civilisational "heritage".

Nice soundtrack.Great movie. Yeah.
