I was privileged to get an invite to the cast and crew screening of the final cut of The Final Winter, and was pretty well blown away.
This is a great film - exciting, heart-wrenching, funny - beautifully written, wonderful performances, excellent cinematography, and some great cameos from the likes of Thomas Kenneally and real life Newtown Jets legends, Phil Sigsworth and Tom Raudonikis.
One of the most enjoyable Aussie films I've seen in years - and not just for football fans. A look around the audience at the end of the film saw all of the women, and a lot of the men in the audience, furtively, or openly wiping away tears. A knockout performance by Matt Nable who wrote and co-produced the film and took the challenging main role. He brings an appealing pathos and depth to the role. He's definitely one to keep an eye on. Equally great performances by John Jarratt, Raelee Hill, Nathaniel Dean and Matty Johns in his first serious dramatic role.
Keep an eye out for it in Cinemas later this year. Highly recommended.
