there's no place like this home.

The Castle (1997).




IMDb Synopsis:  "A Melbourne family is very happy living where they do, near the Melbourne airport.  However, they are forced to leave their beloved home, by the Government and airport authorities.  'The Castle' is the story of how they fight to remain in their house, taking their case as far as the High Court."


IMDb Rating:  7.5/10


My Rating:  8.5/10


My Thoughts:  This is a tale that really touches the heart.  The good old fashioned Australian humour that has been integrated into the story has complimented the element of sentimentality that is present, making it easy to fall in love with this family.  A heartwarming film that any Australian must see.
