The Year My Voice Broke

(1987)Directed by John Duigan105 min · PG-13Drama, Romance
“It was incredible. It was the year that changed everything. Forever.”

Danny Embling (Noah Taylor), a small, awkward boy in rural New South Wales in 1962, wants only to keep Freya Olsen (Loene Carmen), his best friend and first love, exactly where she has always been. John Duigan draws the story from his own boyhood and tells it as Danny's memories of one year. But Freya is growing up, and Trevor Leishman (Ben Mendelsohn), a rugby player, is already circling.
