Movie Reviews of The Valley Between
Movie Review: Excellent, wholesome family entertainment
Summary: 5 Stars
I first saw episodes 2 and 3 of "The Valley Between" on 2 VHS tapes from the Brittania catalog in 1998, then called "Life on an Australian Prairie." I thought it was excellent then, and seeing these VHS tapes prompted me to buy the whole series this past summer from Amazon.com. I particularly enjoyed the wholesome scenes of family life, not too different from Michael Landon's adaptation of Laura Ingalls Wilder's "Little House on the Prairie" TV series (1974-83). The actors in "The Valley Between" are all excellent, and very believable in their roles, but I enjoyed especially the acting of Jamie Croft (age 15 in 1996 when this was made) who plays Bruno Gunter, a 14 year old boy living in a the country near a small village in eastern Australia in the 1930s. His father, a stern German immigrant, insists on hard work and high moral values from his son. Bruno is often day-dreaming, not attentive in school, preferring to be with his friends, or visitng with neighbors. There are some comic elements, and some dramatic moments, too. But although Bruno appears irresponsible and his father too stern and gruff at times, there is and understanding between them and a good personal chemistry.
Most of the actors in the cast are Australians, and there are cast bios included on one of the DVDs. Marcos Gunter, Bruno's father, is played by Christian Kohlund, who according to his bio is from Switzerland; I've seen Kohlund in Canadian TV shows set in the 1800s, with a similar theme to "The Valley Between."
[...] The lack of extreme violence and foul language also makes this a desirable series for families: wholeome entertainment. Highly recommended.
