I couldn't find a thread for Ned Kelly, and I'm not sure if it really belongs in The Grapevine since it has been released in Australia and other countries, but not the U.S.  Has anyone here seen it?  It releases in the U.S. on March 26, 2004.

No, and I don't know if I want to see it. Naomi Watt's character seems like such a downsize for her. She seems to be playing the doe-eyed heroine of olden days. Not to mention Heath Ledger is in it.  :x

Has anyone seen the Mick Jagger version from the 70's?

I think I caught 5 minutes of it on tv once... it looked pretty weird...
Those who say that the totalitarian state of the Soviet Union was not "real" Marxism also cannot admit that one simple feature of Marxism makes totalitarianism necessary:  the rejection of civil society. Since civil society is the sphere of private activity, its abolition and replacement by political society means that nothing private remains. That is already the essence of totalitarianism; and the moralistic practice of the trendy Left, which regards everything as political and sometimes reveals its hostility to free speech, does nothing to contradict this implication.

When those who hated capital and consumption (and Jews) in the 20th century murdered some hundred million people, and the poster children for the struggle against international capitalism and America are now fanatical Islamic terrorists, this puts recent enthusiasts in an awkward position. Most of them are too dense and shameless to appreciate it, and far too many are taken in by the moralistic and paternalistic rhetoric of the Left.
