Rating: B- -- This sprawling, often boring saga of Aussie nomads in the 1920s is directed by Zinnemann with his customary tamed discipline and human realism, elevated by the solid ensemble. Full Review

Description by OLDIES.com:

It's tough driving 1,200 sheep across 400 miles of hostile outback. But for drovers Paddy and Ida Carmody and their son, Sean, it's the only job there is. Poor in possessions, they're rich in freedom, adventure and love.
