Phillip Noyce’s ‘Rabbit-Proof Fence’ Getting 4K Remaster U.S. Premiere


'Rabbit-Proof Fence': Phillip Noyce Political Drama Gets 4K Remaster

RABBIT-PROOF FENCE, Kenneth Branagh, 2002, (c) Miramax/courtesy Everett Collection Rabbit-Proof Fence tells the true story of three mixed-race Aboriginal girls—Molly Craig, her sister Daisy Kadibill, and their cousin Gracie Fields—who, after being forcibly removed from their mothers in 1931, escaped from a government reeducation camp and embarked on a harrowing journey across the Australian Outback by way of the ‘rabbit-proof fence,’ which once stretched the length of Western Australia, to return to their families. The movie, which was released by Miramax, went on to earn Noyce Best Director at the National Board of Review that year as well as the Freedom of Expression awards and one of the org’s top ten pics. The filmmaker’s Hollywood blockbusters include Salt, Clear and Present Danger, and Patriot Games.
