If you\u2019re like me, and vaguely remember 2008\u2019s Australia<\/a><\/strong><\/em>, you might have been surprised to see Faraway Downs<\/a><\/strong><\/em> appear on Hulu in late November 2023. Would any director have the audacity to rerelease a film nearly two decades after its debut and pretend it wasn\u2019t some bizarre cash grab? <\/p>\n

Evidently yes, but the resulting miniseries is so much more than I could have anticipated.<\/p>\n

Both renditions follow English rose Lady Sarah Ashley (Nicole Kidman<\/a>) and \u00a0the ruggedly handsome and surprisingly nameless Drover (Hugh Jackman<\/a>) through the harrowing Outback of Australia. A sweeping love story that takes the viewer all across Australia Pre-World War II, the original film fell just shy of the Gone with the Winds<\/em>-esque style it was shooting for. Now Hulu has given director Baz Luhrmann<\/a> the chance to reup his would-be classic, but the resulting series has many viewers wondering if this is some sort of elaborate bamboozle.<\/p>\n

Why did Baz Luhrmann make Faraway Downs?<\/em><\/h2>\n
