THE TURNING TRAILER
 CATE BLANCHETT, HUGO WEAVING, ROSE BYRNE, DAVID WENHAM, MIRANDA OTTO
Since it's been a very poor week in movie news, I've been trying this week to introduce you to lots of smaller films and quality dramas, and one of those is Australian omnibus movie THE TURNING made of a number of shorter dramatic stories directed by some of Australia's famous moviemakers and starring all of Oz's biggest stars Cate Blanchett (she also directs one of the stories), Rose Byrne, David Wenham, Richard Roxbourgh, Miranda Otto, Hugo Weaving, Callan Mulvey, Mia Wasikowska... Each of the 17 stories is based on a collection of short stories by Australian writer Tim Winton. The movie hits Australian cinemas later this month!
