Episode 326 Movie Chat : The Sapphires

This episode we watched the movie The Sapphires and we discussed the lovely Chris O’Dowd and how much we love him.

“Inspired by a true story, The Sapphires a celebration of music, family and self-discovery about four young, talented Australian Aboriginal women who learn about love, friendship and war when their all-girl group entertains the US troops in Vietnam in 1968. After premiering at Cannes FilmĀ Festival in 2012, The Sapphires topped the Australian box office and is one of the highest-grossing Australian films of all time.” https://goalpostpictures.com/film/the-sapphires

There are a few story lines that are happening in the movie, one is the history of the treatment of the Aboriginal population and how it has shaped the relationships among the four women in the group, the other is the story of the group themselves, and their romantic lives. To see what we each thought make sure you listen to the pod episode!
