Rabbit Proof Fence Abduction Scene

This is a scene from the filming of the movie.

From an emotional intelligence standpoint there are a couple things I want to point out. One is how the director tries to make the girl laugh when pulls her over to him, but later when after the scene he invalidates everyone by saying "whoa" when he wants everyone to stop crying. He does not comfort her then when she most needs it. He is trying to control both their feelings and their behavior to suit his own wishes.

i think they should make a film about the aboriginals in Tasmania, who were just slaughtered as an attempt of completely eradicating them. so shocking, yet hardly anyone knows about it

I'd just like to point out the gross inaccuracies of the movie compared to what Molly actually wrote...

For example, Maude gave up her children willingly.. They were not pried from her arms, they were simply picked up. They knew it was happening. It was better for them than being ostracized by the aboriginals. Half-caste children were not accepted by either white or aboriginal societies. The bit about one of them being promised to a full-blood is a crock of bull.

@tina2deadly Where abouts in Australia do you live? Cause I've been to Queensland and the bogans there treat everyone that doesn't look like them like absolute garbage. In Melbourne however, everyone at my school reckons aboriginals are awesome apart from one guy whos grandfather was murdered by one but ANYWAY, I paid almost 800 bucks to go stay at an aboriginal boarding school up in Queensland and they were so nice and now I'm friends with one and we e-mail eachother all the time.

Everyone has to realise that throughout history, people, not matter what race or gender have committed crimes against humanity but we all learn from those horrible mistakes and know what is right and what is wrong.

@OceanicMetal please educate me on what they did. and dont forget to include the part that white empirilists, missionaries, and colonizers played in it. Dont hate the truth~

@danleafboy What the fuck? How can you laugh at something like this? Maybe we should take your children or family away and see how you think it's funny then!

@gemma1507 I learnt about this too, but through my family. I am aboriginal and my family were taken...I can see the pain in my grandparents eyes and in my anuts and uncles...they went through so much and yet we have people on this site treating them like shit...thank you for sticking up for us...

@LIVEMeltdown4ROCK No, they weren't given a better life, they given to white families to 'breed the black out of them'. Do not make comments on something you know nothing about...
