Plot Synopsis
The Drover’s Wife‘s plot synopsis: based on the book by Leah Purcell, “1893, the Australian Outback. The area is rough, the people hard-nosed, the law rather secondary. Here, women – and newcomers anyway – quickly become the pawn of men. Even Nate Clintoff (Sam Reid), who is new in town to keep law and order, still has to fight for his place in the hierarchy. Molly Johnson (Leah Purcell), heavily pregnant and alone with her children on a farm far from town, knows her place only too well. Nevertheless, she doesn’t let it get her down. She does everything to protect her children. Everything.”
Review
FilmBook Writer Jacob Mouradian screened The Drover’s Wife: The Legend of Molly Johnson at the 2021 South by Southwest Film Festival had this to say about the film:
Unfortunately, despite its sharp themes and spiky depictions, The Drover’s Wife can’t help but occasionally languish in a formal rigidity. Purcell’s direction is daring and bold for the most part, which makes it all the more disappointing when she pumps the brakes.
