Summary: impressive features and your money's worth
Review: For whatever is charged for this video you will be getting your money's worth. There is an impressive 10 hours of video episodes (most 45 minutes) as well as extras about Australia's history on this 2 DVD set. How many movie companies will give you five hours of video and audio material on one DVD. I love the acting of Jamie Croft as Bruno. You get a lot of enjoyment out of watching this 1930's movie about a boy growing up with his family in Australia. This film would be especially good if you have a back seat TV and DVD player in some van and you want to entertain the kids after logging many miles and hours of road time. I would give this movie ten stars if I could. It is that good.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Jamie Croft: One talented actor
Review: I loved this movie. Especially Jamie Croft whose portrayal of Bruno Gunther resonated with me. I liked him a super whole lot. The film is a great movie filmed in South Australia. The boy plays a little mischief, when he runs away from a steer after he lets them in to a fence that has cows. There are other fun scenes like playing pranks on girls (like putting pencils and other things in their hair during class.) I loved some of the music that represented the 1930's. Bruno learns some lessons on what it means to be a man, like focusing on school work. I would highly recommend acquiring this two CD collection if you want a fun movie to resonate with and enjoy. Hollywood should make a dozen more movies like this, before the year is over with.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Family Entertainment at its Best
Review: This is an utterly delightful look at family life circa 1930's South Australia among the immigrant German community. The acting is so good, the characters seem totally real, and the storyline is gripping. Each of the 6 episodes builds on the previous ones, but is an entire story in itself. From a mischievious, prank-prone boy, we watch the development and growth of Bruno, the main caharcter, as he turns into a responsible, moral and hardworking young man, This is good old fashiioned family entertainment, the way old Disney pictures were. Highly recommended.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: growing up
Review: This is the story of a boy from another country (germany) growing up with a very strict father, and all of the other problems a 14 year old faces. He rebels, he fights, he cries...he has a little fun, too. a great story, a great plot, it's a movie for the whole family!
