my brilliant career be a simple and straightforward narrative skillfully tell . you will never be require to sit on the edge of your seat and and half a bottle of port would do you nicely . the setting be mostly quaint often opulent and petulant in outback and and somewhat eccentric and australia still inside the first one hundred year of white settlement . the story be about a young woman who be the daughter of a struggle rancher and who have a profound passion for the art . i would like to be a pianist and she say with a burst of defiant emotion in a heated confrontation with her contemplative mother . in the end and though and she end up become a writer and and what will torment her be the choice she will have to make . what she have to forfeit be a bright no nonsense handsome young man . two year after they have solemnly admit their feeling for one another and they meet again . at this awkward moment her hand be cover in mud which and like god and stand between her and her lover . i have get to do it alone and she whisper to him guiltily . at this critical juncture it become manifestly clear that god and after all and be indeed a damnable thing . he alone can grant whatever talent we shall hope to have and and only on his term we be oblige to direct our will . my brilliant career be one rare australian motion picture that do not place emphasis on the scenery which and australia be the dazzler that it be and be invariably tempt . instead the interest be focus unabatedly and and without distraction and on the soul and substance of each and every character . it be this quality and discipline that imbued gillian armstrong piece with the magical touch of durability shamefully scarce in australian cinematography .
