Watching a movie-Australia is such an exciting movie to be watched. In this movie, Lady Sarah Ashley (Nicole Kidman) is a proper Englishwoman who makes a journey to Australia and reached the country in the years before World War II. She wants to have her estranged husband sell his cattle ranch to a monopoly craving businessman. When she arrives, her husband, Lord Ashley is dead and her plans to sell the ranch changes when she sees an employee (Fletcher) cheating her husband’s business and mistreating a boy named Nullah. Although Nullah is his own son, but because he is of mixed race, Fletcher mistreating him. Lady Ashley wants to drive her cattle to Darwin so that she can sell them to the troops, but she requires the help from a drover to get them there. From my point of views, I think the most interesting character in this movie is Lady Ashley who is acted by Nicole Kidman, an actress from Australia. Based on several evidences, I think Lady Ashley is the most outstanding character in this movie. The characteristic of Lady Ashley is she is a tall English woman with a short blonde hair. She has a pair of big eyes, tall nose and a high cheekbone. She has a unique dress sense as for me she is a beautiful woman.
For me, Lady Ashley is a brave woman. She is an English aristocrat who is really brave to fly to Australia to meet up with her husband, Lord Ashley although his futile of stopping her. When she arrives in Australia, she has to face a really terrible problem that is her husband is dead in Faraway Downs. Despite of her husband’s death, she remains strong and she has to take the responsibility to take over Faraway Downs.
Her bravery attitude can be seen by the plot when she fires Fletcher as she can finds out from Nullah that Fletcher is cheating and stealing her husband’s business. Without further investigation, she has fires Fletcher. She knows that she will face the consequences from her action as Fletcher might seek for revenge.
Besides that, I think Lady Ashley is a caring person as she is really loves Nullah, the half cast boy living at her cattle station. When everyone is trying to take Nullah away, she stops them as for her, half cast is not important. She has provides the boy with love and care when Nullah’s mother is dead. When Nullah has been sent to Mission Island, she tries to get Nullah back no matter what it takes.
Other than that, she is also a protective person. It can be seen when she tries to protect Nullah from everyone as Nullah is the half cast boy. Although she is not connected to that boy, but she is really wants to protect Nullah. When Fletcher wants to take Nullah away, she protects him as she knows that Nulah might be killed by Fletcher. At the ball night, she tries to convincing the doctors to stop taking children away from mothers as she can feel the pain of mothers who lost their children away.
As the conclusion, I think Lady Ashley is the most outstanding character in this movie. It is because despite off she is a beautiful woman, she is also a caring, protective and bravery woman. As for me, this movie should be watched because it is interesting and enjoyable. Australia is a great movie.
