Product Overview
Based on the bestselling autobiography comes the heartfelt true-life story of Caddie (AFI Award–winner Helen Morse), a single mother struggling to raise two children during the throes of the Great Depression in Sydney. Forced to earn a living as a barmaid to support her family, she befriends a colourful local, Ted (Jack Thompson), who steals her heart and leads her astray. Formidable in her resolve, Caddie unexpectedly finds romance when she meets Peter (Takis Emmanuel), a Greek immigrant who shares her plight.
Part of the Australian renaissance of cinema and winner of four AFI Awards, Caddie sparkles in a new widescreen transfer and features a first-rate support cast including Oscar-nominee Jacki Weaver, Melissa Jaffer, Drew Forsythe and Lynette Curran.
