Swimming Upstream
Australia 2002, 114 minutes
Dir. Russell Mulcahy
Rating: [M]
Genres: Drama
Feat. Geoffrey Rush, Judy Davis
Aroview: A sturdily dramatic account of Australian Anthony Fingleton’s rise from his working class origins in 1950s Brisbane to becoming a champion backstroke swimmer.
Anchored by the excellent performances of Geoffrey Rush and Judy Davis as the parents, who face their own constricted lives with a mixture of anger, humour and alcoholic self-medication. Strong on period detail, with a satisfying vein of poignant recollection. Based on Fingelton’s autobiography.
