Thank God! After years of supporting an increasingly tired and predictable Australian film industry, Look Both Ways is a minor miracle. This is as close to a perfect piece of film making I've seen in years. For a movie preoccupied with the nature of death, and how we face issues with mortality, it's entertaining, incredibly moving, never dull and beautifully acted. Sarah Watt (the writer/director) is definitely a person to watch, her mastery of the art of story-telling is well matched by her skill with direction. She extracts fine performances from her cast - with one of her most moving characters only having one line of dialogue - an incredibly rare quality. My faith in the Australian film industry has been restored.
