The Sapphire
Based on a true story, The Sapphires is a real crowd pleaser. It tells the tale of four Aboriginal sisters billed as Australia's very own Supremes, who toured Vietnam, performing for the U.S. troops. It's 1968 and the story unfolds against the backdrop of that tumultuous year, in which the Aborigines finally got the right to vote, Martin Luther King Jr. and Robert Kennedy were assassinated, and North Vietnam launched the Tet Offensive. Despite these tragedies, this funny, charming, and deeply moving film dramatizes the triumph of (soul) music over war and love over violence. Played the Cannes, Telluride, and Toronto film festivals. 103min Not Rated
