New Zealand   Ray Winstone

Nice adventure film which made excellent use of the stunning NZ landscape.

The story is based on a maori man unjustly accused of murder who goes on the run and is pursued by a bitter, disaffected former Boer. The dynamic between them and their common contempt for the Brit imperialists gave the film depth and historical resonance.

RW underplayed his part which worked beautifully...his enigmatic persona helped create a real aura of suspense. Solid film.
