The film is beautifully shot and the performances are often riveting SO hats off to the actors involved.
For me the film itself was let down by a sense of both being rather predictable in terms of both who the participants are, and how they behave and what happens to them at both main and supporting levels. and pandering to the current buzz issues such as immigration.
The "gritty" depiction of the life of a farmer - appears to be one that is designed to shock its urban audience particularly through its use of camera angles. I just found that treatment rather obvious.
I found Women in Love - in 1969 a far more powerful movie.
