Note de maykuo
I vividly recall my profound disappointment upon watching "Australia" in 2018. Despite its exquisite cinematography, the storyline left me disheartened with its chaotic and perplexing narrative. At that time, I distinctly conveyed to my friends that the experience felt like a regrettable waste of resources.
Fast forward 15 years, and my perspective on "Faraway Downs" has undergone a noteworthy evolution. The primary flaw, as I now discern, in the original movie is its temporal constraint, attempting to distill a rich narrative into a mere 2 hours and 45 minutes. The televised version successfully rectifies this, affording a more profound exploration of each character's depth. Commendations are certainly due to the stellar performances of Nicole Kidman and Hugh Jackman, who unequivocally stand as paragons in their roles.
The concluding episode ascends to the echelons of masterful storytelling, seamlessly interweaving poignant, heartrending, romantic, and dramatic moments. To avoid spoilers, I'll refrain from delving into specifics, but I must confess to a continuous emotional engagement, marked by tears from the opening sequence to the final frame.
In my evaluation, I extend a rating of 8 out of 10. A minor caveat arises from a perceived sense of cheesiness, emanating from the director's earnest pursuit of political correctness. The explicit conveyance of messages at the onset and conclusion of each episode felt somewhat contrived, diverging from the nuanced approach of Kevin Costner in "Dances with Wolves." It appears that Baz Luhrmann may have erred on the side of excess in this regard.
Notwithstanding this modest critique, my resolute recommendation for "Faraway Downs" endures. It has rightfully claimed its place among my preferred Christmas season viewing, standing shoulder to shoulder with timeless classics such as" Downton Abbey", "The Holiday," "Gone with the Wind," and "It's a Wonderful Life."

I really enjoy this movie, beautiful story and good acting! The actor David Kross is so handsome! The movie teaches us that it is easier to hate than to love. If we can learn to love, we can move on and set us free. We all can learn a lesson from this movie. The ending is so touching and makes me cry. The music is fantastic and cinematography is superb! 9 out of 10.
I just love this movie, a touching love story, very good acting and amazing cinematography. Also, this movie really inspires to visit Valdivia, Chile one day! To sum up, it would be an excellent movie choice for yourself or maybe with your love ones in a weekend night.
