I had never heard of Ned Kelly before this film and I was shocked to see how big of a folk hero he was and how many films were made prior to this one. In that regard it was eyeopening. I felt like we didn’t need all the stuff when he was a kid, but I liked the actor who played young Ned. Essie Davis was the standout of this one though. She is such a good actress. I loved the dark colors the world lives in especially when it is coupled by scenes where the light just strobes.
