As far as Rabbit Proof Fence goes, my thoughts are that there is good movie making and there's true stories that need to be told. Rabbit Proof Fence is in the latter category-not that it's a bad movie and the more times I see it (about 8 times at last count), the more I appreciate it but as art it's not at the top of its genre. I'd say see it because it needs to be known what happened to Aboriginal people last century so that if anything can be put in place to stop this kind of thing happening again or these kinds of attitudes (A.O. Neville's) being perpetrated, then this perhaps is a tool in that particular battle.
