Review of Water Under the Bridge

I missed this mini-series first time round because I didn"t have a TV until at the age of 37 I bought one in 1982.Therefore I viewed this not from the perspective of 1980 but 2019.It is a look back at those frontier days of the great renaissance of the Australian film and television industry and I am not disappointed.This is a story of REAL people;there are no heros here. ,just people, with some exceptions , being selfish, hurtful (murder and suicide no less) and a general disregard for others.I can relate to these characters because I have met and am myself just like them.All the actors gave from good to outstanding performances which brings me to Robyn Nevin. This woman has been delivering the 'goods' since !959 and in this mini-series has .showcased her 'tour de force' performance brilliantly.It will remain with me.
