"They wanna put me on that mission island." "Make me into white fellow." "But they are not coppers." "And the first time, I saw her." "That Mrs. Boss." "The strangest woman I've ever seen." "She's not from this land." "This land... my people got many names for." "But white fellows called it..." "Australia." "But this story not begin that day." "This story begin a little while ago." "In a land far far away." "That land called England." "My husband must sell Faraway Downs." "But the offer from this cattle king" " Mr Carney is only 1/6 to what it was once worth." "We need the money, Ronstan." "But Maitland is just about to muster the fats.." "What?" "Getting the big cows ready for market." "Right." "You and I both know there is only one reason... my husband has spent so much time Down-Under." "And it has absolutely nothing to do with cows?" "At least not of the animal variety." "Lady Ashley I do think that is a bit harsh." "Oh Ronstan, drink your tea." "Lady Ashley." "What do you intend to do?" "I intend to travel to this cattle station." "Sell it." "And bring Maitland home - myself." "But Lady Ashley, it's Australia." "Darling Sarah, I emplore you do not travel." "Outbreak of war imminent." "Stop." "Maitland, your concern regarding war duly noted." "Stop." "Have plan concerning cattle - sale to King Carney not necessary." "Need more time." "Stop." "Nonsense." "Stop."

"An invitation?" "Man, I can't let down." "Lady Sarah Ashley." "Genuine aristocrat." "Living here right here in Darwin." "Administrator - we´re at war." "As the officer in charge of livestock purchases for the armed forces" "Quite a looker." "I fail to see." "What Lady Sarah Ashley- has to do with Carney´s stranglehold of the beef industry." "Her husband Lord Ashley claims he´s mustering fats at Faraway Downs.." "Her father kept her Faraway down." "Faraway Downs?" "Faraway Downs." "The only Cattle station in the whole of the North." "In the whole of the north, not owned by Lesley King Carney." "Lord Maitland Ashley is mustering on Faraway Downs." "Isn´t quite what we had in mind, is it Neil?" "No" " Yeah...." "Now his missus has arrived on a flying boat." "Look like they're gonna sell Faraway Downs to me" " Neil." "No - she won´t last!" "." "A delicate English rose withers in the outback." "You with me?" "If you must know, I am to be met by my husband´s trusted man , a Mr. Drover." "A bloody drover." "Look at my wife and daughter down there - giving her the royal welcome." "My fiance Neil Fletcher manages Faraway Downs." "Good day." "Big pile." "Not a bad-looking sheila but what´s the story on the luggage." "Wants to settle down in the outback, does she?" "If she stays and Lord Ashley manages to get his cattle down onto that wharf there, then we've got a competitor for the army contract" " Neil." "Carney's control of every cattle station in the North jeopardizes the supply of beef to our troops." "But it's a poor war that doesn't make a decent patriot rich." "So..." "I don't want a single beast from Faraway Downs to set a hoof on that wharf!" "You with me, Neil?" "Yeah, yeah" " Life should take its course." "What about the missus?" "I've arranged for someone special to give her the old scenic route." "Give her a taste of the outback." "Who's taking her?" "The drover?" "The drover?" "Enjoy the ride, sweetheart!" "I'm Sarah Ashley." "I have said that Lord Ashley has sent a trusted man to collect me - a Mr Drover." "It seems as if he has spent great lengths." "No women." "Ladies lounge is next door." "The hen parlour is that way, my dear." "No wonder your establishment is empty" "Good day." "No!" "No..." "My panties..." "Oh my God!" "Welcome to Australia." "Drover take Mrs. Ashley to Faraway Downs in a great big fancy truck." "He even let her sit in his special seat." "He even drinks Drovers own water dribble." "They get along like a Burning house." "Now Magarri... he's sitting up top." "And Magarri's cousin Goolaj, he come along for the ride." "That make them friends right away." "Water." "That's it." "Stay." "Stay." "Trusted man" " Typical man." "Sure your husband is a pretty good bloke." "Yes." "He certainly knows how to choose his employees." "No wonder the place is bankrupt." "I am not an employee!" "Great." "So you're just driving me out all the way out to Faraway Downs... as a personal favour to my husband, are you?" "No." "Him being such a good bloke and all?" "I'm driving out there because he promised me a drive of 1500 head of cattle." "What?" "To buy?" "No." "You goose" " Just to drove." "I'm a drover, right?" "I move the cattle from A to B." "But I work on commission." "No man hires me, no man fires me." "Everything I own, I can fit in my saddle bag." "Which is the way I like it" "They are all very outback adventures." "Not saying it´s for everyone." "No..." "Definitely not for everyone." "Most people like to own" "You know, van, luggage other people." "Makes them feel secure." "But all that can be taken away." "In the end, you really own really ... is a - is a story." "Just trying to live a good one." "Yes... an adventure story." "You sound just like my husband." "Oh..." "The kangaroo!" "Lovely." "Beautiful." "I've never seen a kangaroo." "Look." "They're jumping." " They're jumping." "Oh it's beautiful." "Look at them - jumping." "Mr. Drover." "Hey miss Boss." "Tucker" " Mrs Boss?" "Mr. Drover." " Yeah." "There's only one tent." "That's right." "For the 4 of us?" "Well, it gets pretty chill here at night." "We- would like to bunk up together." "Are you hungry?" "Pleasure huh?" "Mush and pies, you know." "Oh come on, Lady Ashley." "We're just having a laugh." "Never really sleep in a tent in our life." "We just bunk around the fire." "See?" "See we're not really used to..." " A woman?" "I suppose we should be back in Darwin." "At the church page or Ladies or whatever you call it." "But I would have it noted that I am as capable as any man." "Guests." "We're not used to guests." "We´re having a lot of women in the outback." "But now that you mention it I have a lot to require when... we meet in the outback." "But they're mostly native women." "Aboriginal women." "They're very easy to... get along with." "If you try." "Get out of here." "Why did you stop?" "Your accountant!" "Hey Drover." "You get plenty of problem now." "See you, Drover." "Care for a little one." "from the flask." "I'm sorry." "What was your name again?" "Fiddling Flimp...melady" "Kipling Flynn." "Right." "How long til we reach Faraway downs?" "We've been on it for the last 2 days." "Drover!" "Hey Drover!" "How you doing?" " Good." "Aren´t you all gonna stop and have a rest for a while?" "Nah, I gotta make a delivery." "Put the kettle on, I'll be around in a couple of days, allright?" "Cheers." " Ok." "See you soon." "She's easy to get on with." "She's a rather wild one." "You and my husband share an interest." "An interest?" "Really?" "Come on." "We all know the real reason why my husband is out here." "Right, you ain't into breeding yet." "Breeding?" " Yeah." "No we´re both dead keen on breading." "I have this idea which he loved..." "I´d be quite excited about it too actually." "Now I´m a brumby man, but his fancy English for the Capricornia" "Has really caught my eye." "She is gorgeous." "Really gorgeous." " Gorgeous creature." "I've always wanted to mate an English thorough-bred with a bush bronco." "Magic." "Would be magic." "Imagine that combination- - Don't you say another word." "How dare you." "Poppycock!" "What you talking about?" " Popp y cock. (Bullshit!" ")" "What you talking about?" "You want" "You want to have it only to be." "What?" "What was that?" "You know exactly what I'm saying." "Just like you have it on with that poor girl you're exploiting and..." "God knows how many of them." "What are you talking about?" "You´ve got a filthy mind" " Lady You´re an animal!" "I wouldn´t have it on with you" "If you were the only tart left in Australia." "You are an animal..." " I wouldn't." "Who?" "What was that?" "Stay in the car." "No..." " Get your hands off me." "For once in your life - do as you´re bloody told." "There she is." "Faraway Downs." "And that first time, I saw her." "That Mrs. Boss." "Lady Ashley!" "Wait!" "Don't go in there!" "I'm so sorry." "My family´s had the honour of serving the owners of Faraway Downs... for three generations." "We know how hard this land can be." "But Lord Maitland Ashley..." "He never gave up." "The only thing that could stop this decent courageous man was a spear." "But the murderer is black." "The so called King George." "And he will be brought to justice." "Let us now pray for Maitland Ashley." "His soul may enter peacefully through the gates of heaven." "Lady Ashley, we can leave for Darwin first thing in the morning." "Yes." "Mr Fletcher." "I can't understand what my husband would have seen out here." "Yeah, this land has a strange power." "That first night, when the sun go to sleep," "King George tells me this land be healed." "He tell me that woman, that far far away woman she be like the rain." "I´ve been thinking, I'm gonna sing her to me." "Make the land sing." "Ah - you can see me now?" "Who are you?" "I'm Nullah." "How did you get in here?" "I make myself invisible." "But it's gotta come from magic." "What do you want?" "That Fletcher, been cursed this place." "But you like rain or serpent." "You´re my luck." "You heal this land." "So I sing you to me." "Like I sing you fish to me." "I sing too - when mama and Fletcher make wrong side business." "Wrong side of business?" "You know." "Laying down and tickling." "Oh my goodness!" " Me and you secret." "Oh my goodness!" "Mr. Fletcher!" "I got to sing to mama to warn her that Lord Boss Ashley is coming down." "Maitland" " Oh I mean..." "Lord Ashley?" "Yeah." "He plenty funny." "So that's why I took him down the billabong." "Show him that big fat cheeky bulls." "Come here." "Look them." "Look!" "Get pushed across that river." "Over to Carney Land." "The books." "Billabong." "That's where Maitland was killed." "But Mrs. Boss" "Please don't!" "Don't make the policeman take away my boy." "Them coppers" " That bad Fletcher." "He say he see me - he send me to the mission island." "To that Lock Lock." "Throw away the bloody key." "Please missus - quick!" "I'll make us invisible." "Mrs. Boss." "It's you." "Last night I show you." "Come on." "Ey - it is a beautiful day, ain't she?" "How was your sleep?" "Restful?" "I wouldn't say so." "No." "Hey now the boys are..." "The boys are just finishing up." "I've got to tell you they're pretty sorry mob of cattle." "Seems hardly worth the effort." "Right to go" " Lady Ashley?" "Mr. Fletcher." "Tell me about the big fat cows that cross the river down at the Billaballong or whatever it is you call it." "Yeah, the Billabong." "Now that's Carney property over there." "Our cattle don´t cross the river." "Apparently they do." " Yeah." "Who says they do?" "That little boy there." "Oh - you mean little half-cast fellow" "Hey little fellow, come here." "Come and tell Mr. Fletcher what you told me last night." "Nullah!" "Go to him!" "Please." "Do it for mummy please!" "He-he - Funny ones..." "Do what your mother says." "Did you see big fat cattle crossing Marmont river?" "Well, they´re just Carney cattle on the other side of the river having a drink." "One more word and I'll beat your mother." "Them just Carney's cattle." "I´ve been looking about them myself." "Oh you two told great big tall story." "Don´t ya." "It's all right, Mr. Fletcher." "I'm sure the boy just made a mistake." "Oh - we must be get going" " Mrs. Ashley." "Hey Sing-Song, take the little fellow to the kitchen and give him a big bloody feed of that tucker he likes." "Hey that old windmill hasn´t turned in years ." "He´s a sweet little boy ah..." "I don´t think he meant any harm" "They are funny little creatures - a little bit soft in the head" "That's why the common sense of the mission." "Come on." "We don't have a whole day." "Liar!" "Bloody liar!" "This is the proof!" "Fletcher!" "Liar!" "Run!" "No!" "Leave him alone!" "Get off my property!" "You no longer work for me." "If I go my men will go with me." "There won´t be a single bloody beast in this stockyard to start to drove in the morning" "You heard what I said, get off my property." "Yeah?" " Go now!" "You're the boss." "Hey Flynn, get in the car, I´m getting you a new job somewhere else ...pack it up, get your gear, I´ll see you in Desperation Creek in a couple of days." "Bloody old fool!" "Carney is gonna get this property " "It´s been a pleasure working for you." "Real pleasure." "That strange women she fire him - that Fletcher." "He can´t hurt mama no more." "From that day on!" "We call her Mrs. Boss" "Why would Fletcher break the water pump?" "I don't know, all crazy!" "Why fair, all crazy!" "Only one person know" "That bloody no good." "That no good man, Kipling Flynn" "That bad man!" "That bad man!" "Mr. Flynn?" "My lady." " Don't get up." "The truth, Mr. Flynn" "This ledger which Fletcher had me keep for the benefit of your husband." "There is however another!" "Kept for the benefits of Mr Carney in which it is recorded all the unbranded" "fat cattle, siphoned off across the river and into his heard." "And the boy - he is Fletcher´s son." "Isn't he?" "Well, as whith all thing of Fletcher is impossible to prove anything" "Well - if Carney´s good Christian wife ever comes to the same conclusion as your self" "Fletcher´s chances of marrying their daughter would be dashed." "I am going to be authorities and I will be telling them..." "Carney is the authority here Are you suggesting that I let him steal my cattle and buy my property for fraction of what it is worth?" "I'm suggesting you continue do what your husband set out to." "Drove..." "Drove the cattle to Darwin" "Would you mind?" "I need a drink." " My lady." "Drove the cattle to Darwin" "Sell them to the army, you´ll break Carneys monopoly you use the profits to get Faraway Downs back on its feet" "You go back to London." "And you´ll be sitting pretty for the rest of your life." "That´s what Maitland was doing." " And there´s no reason why you can´t do the same" "There is just one small problem, having dismissed Fletcher - there´s no-one to muster the cattle" "Drover!" "Drover!" "Yeah, Drover!" "Mr. Drover!" "Hey Drover, you gonna kick me out the foot step for it" "Mr. Drover, I need to speak to you." "Wheré´s all the bloody stockmen ey?" "That what I need to speak with you about." "Where's Fletcher!" "We disagreed and I dismissed him." "Dismissed?" " Yes." "What about the cattle?" "As he was leaving he deliberately let the cows out to be a ?" "I don´t know - whatever you call it and ran off!" "Damn!" "Do you realize woman - what you have done." "You don't take that tone with me, thank you very much!" "Not take the tone with you, huh?" " No" "I ask you one more day and now what you done" "I won´t get another drove cause it´s late in the season you´ve cost me my living" "Can't you just round them up?" "Just go and get them!"" "Just fifteen hundred head of cattle" "Scattered out over a million acres, just me and my two men" "That's a great idea." "Stupid Cow!" "Mr Drover, I was right to dismiss Mr. Fletcher on moral grounds" "Moral grounds, you´re at that again, are you, oh let me guess" "He wanted to exploit you did he?" "Fancy you - did he?" "Is there any man in this world who doesn't fancy you?" "Mr. Fletcher is working for Mr Carney they were pushing the best of young branded cattle... ..across the river onto Mr. Carneys property." "They were stealing." "There´s no surprises there." "No, he is a bad man!" "Allright, allright!" "Look, you can't prove it!" "Right..." " Well..." "You can´t win against Carneys´ - so..." "So just take my advice lady, grab King Carneys offering go the hell call back to England as quickly as possible that way you make everybody happy!" "Especially me." "So you just going to walk away?" " I learnt a long time ago - not to fight other peoples´ wars." " Wait!" "Wait!" "Wait!" "Mr. Drover, wait!" "Please, please!" "Mr. Drover, please!" "Please wait!" "Please, I... is that you said that you dreams was to bread a thoroughbred with a bush brumbie..." "If you agree to help me, I will give you my Capricornia..." "How we gonna do a drove, with me and just two man, huh?" "Crap." "What was a drove with Fletcher?" "Bandy was a drovers boy a long time ago." "Some odd stockman would like to have an aboriginal woman on the drove to keep him company at night" "The shave their heads make them look like boys..." "and work like any other stockman during the day." "That a what you call it?" "Exploiting them" " Exploiting?" "Anyway, we still in trouble." "We have got to have seven good riders at least and the most I can count - is five!" "What have got:" "Me, you, Magarri." " Yeah, My lady..." "We´ve got Daisy - nice ride." "And Bandy - good work!" "Mr. Sing-Song" "Hey, don't look at me ah." "Cooks wagon is our best." "We´ve got five - it´s not enough!" "We need to more experienced riders." "I did that run once..." "Back in 1935, Magarri, Dingo and Jones" "Drongo Brothers." "True nights at the outback!" "Mr. Flynn!" "Can you ride?" " I can!" "I won´t carry a drunk." "All right, everybody, go!" "I drove the cheeky bulls down to big bloody metal ship!" "All right, Five and a quarter!" "6 and a quarter." " What?" "Well - this isn´t Trotting and kins in the gardens" "Mr. Drover, I could show you a thing or two about the horses." "Pretty sure when it comes to horses there is nothing you can show me" "Bring the horse!" "You can't be serious?" " Bring the horse!" "This should be interesting!" "Move along!" "Move along!" "Move along!" "Move it, Move it, you´re going the wrong way!" "Easy!" "Come on!" "Hey... what bloody are you doing?" "You´re scattering them all over the place Get up the back, I have to tight." "Get up there!" "Go..." "Don´t let them break away!" "There you go!" "Go on!" "We´re trying to get cows up there." "I´ve got it!" "I think we´re doing pretty well.." "Are you crazy?" "Take all this stuff where you think you going!" "Shanghai?" "A Lady never knows what she might need." "Run!" "Nullah!" "Run!" "Coppers - coppers!" "Go on boys!" "Move move!" "hurry up!" "Daisy is in the tank." "Shh..." "Bandy" " Bring the tea." "Where´s the Creamy?" "Nullah!" "Lady Ashley, Sergeant Callahan of the Northern Territory police" "Catch that..." "I can´t begin to tell you Lady Ashley how the tragedy which refers to your late husband... has rung sympathy from the hearts of every civilised man and woman in the Territory." "Let me assure you, Lady Ashley?" "The suspect King George will be brought to justice." "But surely a witchdoctor could conceal his tracks..." "Makes no difference, so it´s only a matter of time." "Oh incidentally I met up with your former manager Neil Fletcher." "He informed me that there´s a half-blood aboriginal child out here somewhere." "I thought that we might pick him up and put him in the good hands of the church." "I will be sure to look out for him." "Till we meet again Lady Ashley" "Let's go!" "They´re in the tank!" "Drover!" "Get up there!" "Quickly!" "Mama!" "Daisy!" "Daisy!" "Daisy!" "Daisy!" "I'm..." "I?" "m not..." " What?" "Good with the children." "Nullah?" "I wanted to extend my condoleances." "Go away." "Would you..." "Would you like to hear a story?" " What story?" "Ah well, is a... it?" "s called..." "It?" "s called the Wizard or Oz..." "What´s a wizard?" "...sort of a magic man." "Mama say a Gulliper..." "I Wizard man." " Really?" "A wizard man!" "We can't say mom name no more." "No..." "Ah, anyway there is a girl and there is a dog." "...no, in the films it is a twister!" " Who's Twister." "No..." "Twister not a person, it is like a storm." " Like the wet?" "Like a wet..." "Anyway the story takes place in a..." "In a far away land, called Oz" "This good story." "Got song?" " Yes, yes... a lots of songs!" "I like song." "You sing them me" " I learn them song." "No " "So sing a little." " Good # some where over, the at the rainbow." " Rainbow is pretty" "You funny singer but good song." "Keep going, come on!" "# someday I wish upon a..." "Come on!" "Sing more #as a far behind dreams really do... # come true!" "Mrs. Boss, we gotta get those no good chekey bulls into big bloody metall ship" "That's right." " That´s what bringing songs tell us Mrs. Boss" "To get those no good big bloody bulls into that metal ship" "I'm sorry, I thought he could, I thought he could do it!" "Yeah well, people don´t change, Mrs. Ashley" "Twister!" "Twister!" "Who does that come dire than Kipling Flynn my Lady!" "Well done!" "Well done!" "Kipling!" "Kipling!" "Yeah!" "Welcome!" "Welcome!" "Well, Mr. Drover, I believe we have the appropriate number!" "Appropriate number - uh?" " Yes." "Listen up." "I'm just gonna say this once!" "I run the shots!" "Everybody does exactly as he´s told." "Understood?" " Understood." "And at your experience or age you put in your weight" "Yes boss." "And above all - the drovers law:" "No grog!" "There is a rush the from a cattle stampede into orgy!" "Not much good in dancing and prancing about in your show time" "One thing cattle fear more than a man on a horse - that is one man standing on his own two feet staring him right between the eyes" "Now - you sure your mob is still up for it?" "You can count on us!" "Christ..." "Well, we are where we are..." "We´re gonna get to Darwin before the ship sails" "So we start cracking down the rips, and driving them cheekey bulls all the way of cross the land... to that place they calling Darwin" "Come on!" "Hold!" "Get up!" "The war rages on in Europe, the Japanese are on the mass..." "There are reports of an alliance between Germany, Italy and Japan... which threatens to expand world war 2 - to the shores of Australia" "This is the war of the air, but on the ground, the war office will announce who has won the army´s contract to supply good Aussie beef.." "A couple of days won´t make any difference captain...." "We might just as well sign the contract now, ey?" "I wouldn´t be too sure of that, Mr Carney!" "Air force chaps just spotted a big mob of cattle fifteenhundred head crossing the Marmont River." "Marmont River - that´s Faraway Downs" "Are you running cattle out of Faraway Downs Mr Fletcher?" "No, no, I don't work there anymore." "Well, I suppose Lady Ashley´s droving the cattle herself" "Someone must be helping her." "That´s right Neil" "Someone must be helping her" "When Mrs. Boss first come to this land she look but she not see." "Now, she got her eyes open for the first time" "Some places have got spirits white fellows don't know." "Some places - no good to go!" "You seeing them cattle tonight?" "No ah, not me!" "I'm the orchestra." "That´s why I always carry this, the famous jail but in sun boomerang harmonica" "Can you play that rainbow song?" "Well, all got the latest one hundred songs that they played here" "I like that rainbow song, It´s all about the dreaming." "Gullabar not teach me that yet." " Who's Gullabar?" "He's my grandfather!" "King George!" "King George is your grandfather?" "He´ll teach me sing a fish song." "He teach me sing down fear!" "Fear evil spirit!" "Wild beast!" "Gullabar teach me plenty songs!" "Gullabar teach me that day down at the billabong" "Mr. Drover, what is that chanting." "Well it´s Magarri singing to the cattle, this keeps them calm at night" "They do it in shifts so those boy can finish up in a couple hours - so" "Bandy, you show Mrs. Boss how it´s done." "Singsong you and me gonna serenade them to three." "And the safest chip is Prudon, so that's the boys´ soprano and his orchestra" "All right, you on till the sun comes up!" "Yes, boss!" "All right, everybody gets to shut light" "Mr. Drover, I really don't think it appropriate to work a child at Nullahs age like that" "Now" " I am more than willing to take his shift" "But Mrs. Boss" " I´m plenty old enough!" "No, I'm talking now." "Mm ... manners!" "Uh-uh" " Steady on now!" "I´m talking!" "Look, just relax will you?" "Boy´s gotta pull his weight like everyone else" "When I was his age I was manning outstations" "Not everybody is you Mr Drover." " That's right." "Not everyone is me" "I'm the boss" "You´re on the 3 o'clock shift - right?" " Yes, boss, night boss" "Relax lady, he´ll be fine." " Good night, Mrs. Boss" "Good night." "Night Singsong." " You on the twelve o'clock" "I suggest you get some sleep." "Good night Flynn." "Lord Ashley was killed by a glass tipped spear" "Are you sure?" "You and me - a secret." "Rush!" "Rush!" "They´re heading towards the cliff face!" "As for speed." "Where's Nullah?" "Come on." "Get on the horse." "He's probably gone." "Come on." "Split up." "Circle the heard before they go off the edge." "Get the hell out of here!" "Head them up." "Come on." "Split!" "Good boy!" "Come on!" "Pull them around." "Pull them around." "Nullah!" "Wait for me at the edge!" "Nullah!" "Look at my back!" "They're running!" "Hey!" "Hey!" "Get on there!" "Come on!" "Nullah!" "No!" "Nullah!" " Nullah!" "It's all right." "You're safe." "I've got you." "You're safe." "You're safe with me." "You are brave, my grandson." "How's the little fellow?" "He's fine." "He's fine." "Yeah?" " Yeah." "I´ll not be able to complete the next passage" "Maybe I get you some water - huh?" "Water - last thing I wanted" "It's them that I would spend my life." "Under the leather, a bottle of Port." "I'm sorry, Drover." "Just in case." "Of course, mate." "Of course." "It´s all a share of crap." "It would be terrible to shame to waste it." "But" "The spear" " The Lady - tell her I was sorry It was I am sorry" "I was a coward." "We lost the sweater his swag and tins of beef and this" "I can't believe I was so insisted on bring him into this." "This silly things." "It was Fletcher who did this, wasn't it?" "The last thing Flint told me before he died was- that your husband was killed by- by a glass tipped spear." "Like the ornamental ones in the homestead." "Glass tip is Kimberley spear." "Like King George's from Arnhem." "Fletcher was trying to make it look like King George." "Fletcher." " Can´t be proved." "I'm sorry." "We can't let them win." "We won't." "The first one walking off." "Maybe that little creamy ass got the black fellow magic" "Shut up, Bull." "They need more than magic to get them to Darwin." "You're gonna need help right down here, all right?" "Yes boss." "Never thought I'd see you this day." "We gonna break the Drover's law." "I've threaten the old enough too." "Yes you are, mate and that's why you- are gonna keep an eye on the rest of us -all right!" "All right - everyone." "Come on John." "Here." " Let´s be upstanding." "To the memory of the gentleman."

"To a lovely girl." "That was before I went off to war." "And what happened?" "I marched off to mother England and by the time I came back, she was sick." "With TB." "But back then the hospital wouldn't treat... blacks." "Oh really." "I see." "Do you have children?" " Nah." "Well, that's a shame." "I think you would have made a great father." "You?" " No." "I can't." "That's too bad." "You'd made a great mother." "Well good night." "Good night." " Yeah." "Water no good, boss." "Might be the Carney boys had already been here." "Bastard!"

"We´d have to cross the Kuraman" "Kuraman - that´s Never-Neverland!" "We can't." "We've gotta to try." "No one would drove the Never Never." "There´s not even a guide here." "You don't know where you are." "Now if you get caught out there, you're gonna lose more than your cattle." "I'm sorry." "Boss." "Look!" "Grandfather, we need to find the water across the Never Never..." "I will sing you." "I will sing you to the place where the five rivers meet." "Here listen." "He gonna sing for us." "You might work with him." "Sing?" "He can find his way anywhere." "The ancestors created songs for everything." "For every rock, and tree and they´re all linked, so..." "Gallibur, a magic man sings him an order to sing us to water." "Even across the Never Never." "And we went on for 3 days." "Everday drier." "Hotter." "Harder" "All that dead land."

"But, but what were they doing in the Kuraman?" "Nothing personal, captain." "I got a business to run." "And you got an army to feed." "So let's not muck about." "I suppose it´s not a real war unless someone is making a profit" "You got them ready to load" " Neil?" "Yeah - we´re right to go." "Cause I got a feeling the captain is gonna put pen to paper" "Hello little sweetie" "What the bloody hell is that?"

"You must be Mr Carney" "Too right love!" "Lady Ashley - Army Dutton" "I´m the officer in charge of live stock purchases" "We will accept 20 percent less than what the Carney Cattle Company is asking." "No can do - love!" "You´re late the contact is signed" "But this contract is not binding until the cattle are loaded" "Load the bloody cattle now" "We´ve got to put the cattle on the ship before Carney" "Get off your backsides" "You drive them straight down to the wharf" "I´ll try and keep Carneys cattle on the yard" "Load the bloody cattle NOW!" "Drover" "Load!" "What are you guys waiting for?" "Run for the bloody gate" "Close that" "You missed the boat - son" "Put them straight down to the wharf" "There are cattle being driven down the wharf" "My husband must have a problem with the loading" "They are - not" " Carney cattle" "It´s Lady Ashley" "Looks like we have a bit of competition.... back in the meat business!"

"Too bloody right!" "I never drink a poor fellow alone." "Right." "I didn't wanna see a single beast from Faraway Downs to set a hoof on that wharf" " Neil!" "But that's what happen when you send a boy to do a man's job." "Now find out if she's going to the ball tomorrow night." "Take care of her ever since." "Said everybody get what they want." "Everybody happy." "Mrs. Boss is going to sell the Faraway Downs and go back England." "Drover - he get him that horse" " Capricornia." "Everybody happy except for me." "Because I'm not white fellow." "I'm not black fellow either." "Me half half." "Creamy." "Me belong no one." "You really do have a gift with horses." "You look different." "I have agreed to be patroness at the ball of the Government house tomorrow night." "Yeah?" "And?" "Drover, I" "I'm going to finish what Maitland set out to do... and I'm going to bring Faraway Downs back to life." "I don't follow you." "Well this is perfect." "I'm going to need a manager." "Well" " I thought that- would be a good job for you." "Anyway, I almost forgot something." "Whoa..." " I got a suit for you." "Stop!" "Don't do that." "Don't do that." "Do what?" "The thing you do when you get a headful of ideas." "Like crossing the Kuraman?" "Come on mate." "You don't know what you're talking about." "Running a station?" "Manager?" "I'm a drover." "No man hires me - no man fires me." "So you don't want to go to the ball?" " Ball?" "Sarah..." "I'm as good as black - to that mob up there." "And I only mix with dingoes." "Not" "Not duchesses." "They keep out of my life." "And I keep out of theirs." "It's the way it is." "Just because it is - doesn't mean it should be." "Well that's the way it is." "Cheer up little fellow." "You and that gentleman is gonna take me on a big night of the pictures." "How?" "You can't take half cast which or so" "Coppers take him." " He won't be half cast." "He got every right to be there." "We use magic." "Got every right to be there." "Because you're a special boy." "He's a special boy." "Nobody's gonna stop you from going." "Nobody." "How good of you Lady Ashley to take an interest in Dr. Marcus's work on the mission?" "Well actually administrator, my interest is on the purpose eventually." "I must say Lady Ashley" "Would you excuse me?" "Amongst the leading fights at Darwin." "I was wondering if you could introduce me to" "Sarah." " Oh Captain Dutton." "Lady Ashley." "I leave you in capable hands of the captain" "I'm sure he'd be happy to introduce you to Dr. Barker." "Her husband's barely in the grave and she is - coverting with a captain." "In that dress!" "Yes." "Bidding should go through the roof." "He is a little boy." "He needs someone to look after." "Sarah" " I'm desperate to speak to Dr. Barker." "I'm going to adopt him." "It's only a matter of time before they take him away." "Adopting an Aboriginal child." "It's much more" "Here." "Come on." "I wanna talk with Lady Ashley." "Yeah we will." "Later Love." "I don't mind if you bid for her on the auction ?" "I won´t be jelious - she" "She's an inspiration." "No, she's full of surprises." "But surely doctor:" "life on a station is far better than a governement institution... who care for these children." "Is far better than life in a government institution." "The auction." "Our gracious patroness." "Lady Ashley." "Now for the auction of the first dance" "The mixed race children must be dislocated from their primitive full blood aboriginal home." "Do I hear a first bid?" "Five Pounds here." " All right." "How else will I debrief the black guys." "This is an old song." "Remember." "It's called" "Has anyone not feel anything about this?" "Lady Ashley, please." "It's effective science that aboriginal mothers soon forgets her offspring." "50 pounds." "70 pounds." "90 pounds." "Every mother forgets her child, Dr. Barker." "Lady Ashley." "This is most inappropriate." " 100." "A new record!" "You can very well ask their fathers can we?" "How dare you." "Going once." "Or perhaps we should." "Going twice." "After all - they're right here in this room." "That's a lie!" "500 quid." "500 pounds." "Well, if it isn't he - the man who" "Almost single-handedly made the Australian beef industry" "What it is today?" "Mr. King Carney of the Carney Cattle Company." "For the benefit of the missions." "Well there's nothing more to say." "Let the king take his prize." "Don't be shy, lady." "Actually I'm just so sorry I was to hear of your husband's death." "The hands of that was - savage." "A savage, yes Mr. Carney." "But you and I both know that my husband was not killed... by an Aborigini." "No, I did not know that." "Perhaps you should ask Mr. Fletcher." "Are you making an accusation?" " Not one that I can prove." "In business I´ve been fortunate." "In family, a little less so..." "I´m prepared to go seventyfive thousand pounds" "This is not about the money, Mr. Carney, there is s little boy" "There were people who are living living on the station for whom I am responsible." "And who will take care of them?" "A cattle station is like a country." "And you have no one to look after it Now" " I can offer protection to every man, woman and child." " And child?" "You will do that?" "How can I keep you to your word?" "I put it in the contract." "King Carney and Lady Ashley..." "Last flying boat, leaves tomorrow because of the war." "Will I tell my lawyer to draw up a contract." "...like King Carney is..." "Inform your lawyer..." "Inform your lawyer, that Far Away Downs is no longer for sale." "Here you are!" "Yeah, you didn´t hear me wanting some dance lessons did you?" "Let´s really get the bastards we were talking about - huh?" "Oh Greg." "She´s invited that man." "Don´t you want a drink - drover?" " Yeah, a beer would be good." "Allright, fox dance!" "Fox dance." "Let´s get out of here!" "There it is, is a storm on the way." "What´s it like." " It´s beautiful" "It´s millions of birds, creeks, turn into rivers, dive fine in the lakes" "Faraway Downs will be reborn as an island." "Green and flowering and fat with life." "Wow, quick..." "Will be cut off from the rest of the world." "Sarah, in the dry, I'll be gone - droving" "But right now - it´s raining." "Maitland Ashley met his death at the hands of a wild savage" "You´re not part of any plan concerning this family." "Nothing is in your name and if anything should happen to my darling cattle" "You lose everything." "Just like gogo sing!" "That rain make everything come alive!"

"What I always wanted Faraway Downs" "Bandy call the men, bunch them up Mr. Fletcher needs to be escorted off the property" "Then Callahan won´t be having anymore cups of tea." "I will though?" "Cup of tea please." "You know how I like it!" "It´s all right Bandy." "You know these days I can pull a few strings I can probably bring your creamy in if you like?" "Or..." "I can talk to doctor Barker and get a guardianship." "I will never sell you my land." " Your land?" "My family worked this property for 3 generations my father died making people like you rich, Faraway Downs belongs to me." "Just like..... ...." "You believe the little creamy belongs to you?"

"Captain Dutton was telling me about this wonderful school at the Eards conducted all across the country" "He wants to go walkabout with king George." "That´s ridiculous, he's a little boy, it´s not safe!" "He´d be safer in Arnhemland than he would be hanging around here" "You can´t change him, Sarah."
