It was only one mistake, but it was a big one.

A review by terrytowel1956
Written by terrytowel1956 on 2023-03-19
Two Hands is a simple and clever crime film about its effect on Australia's youth accurately and with the special Aussie Touch. It also has a charming performance from young Heath Ledger still in his Australian youth so that altogether the result is great. My choice for best Australian movie of all time. Heath Ledger hasn't played anything as good since, however Bryan Brown steals the show as Pando. No doubt one of my favourite characters. And David Field as Acko follows closely behind. Fantastic!
