...PRAISE is a refreshing and original film....A tale of longing - and of fleeting tenderness and grace...
Film Comment
...An absorbing tale of sexual obsession....[PRAISE] will stick with you. It's more than worthy of its title.
New York Times
...Impressive....PRAISE is a lovely piece of movie making: precisely controlled but with a lived-in scruffiness. Curran has a remarkable sensitivity for the textures and rhythms of ordinary life...

Product Description:
PRAISE tells the bizarre, erotic tale of two down-on-their-luck individuals whose passionate affair threatens to save--or destroy--both their lives. Gordon (Peter Fenton) is an apathetic, chain-smoking asthmatic living in a grubby apartment in Brisbane. When he meets barmaid Cynthia (Sacha Horler), who suffers from eczema, the two begin to have sex, play Scrabble, and confront their pathetic situations. Based on a semi-autobiographical novel by Andrew McGahan, this festival favorite is an example of Australian cinema at its most quirky and impassioned.
