A visual splendor, which reveals a tender and heartwarming story. Beautiful cinematography.

Costumes divine. Perfect cast. Knew nothing of this story when I entered the cinema, hence no expectations..... but I left feeling warm and happy.

Competently put together film. Beautifully cast. Held our interest until the very end. Great Australian film making.

Despite being from Melbourne and feeling I knew all about the Michelle Payne story, I was presented with a much deeper exploration of this amazing, young woman's life. The story ensures laughter, tears, joy and bewilderment. Great casting in Sam Neill as Michelle's father, Paddy Payne. Teresa Palmer as Michelle Payne, does not disappoint and Stevie Payne is perfectly cast as his infectious self. Many well known Australian faces in the supporting cast, which adds to the strength of this brilliant story. Beautiful cinematography and a musical score which takes you on an epic rollercoaster ride. I needed tissues even though I knew the outcome. This Australian gem shouldn't be missed. See it on the big screen if you can.
