"My Brilliant Career" A modern classic, the film that introduced director Gillian Armstrong to an international audience also marked the high-water mark of the new Australian cinema. Judy Davis stars a Sybylla Melvyn, the eldest daughter of an impoverished farming family in 19th century Australia. Stifled by sexism, bigotry, and societal pressures--but never by self-doubt--Armstrong's feminist protagonist spurns marriage proposals and other conformities to realize her dream of becoming a writer. Nominated for the Palm D'Or at the Cannes Film Festival (1979). 101 minutes. |
