Well, you can see where this is heading by the statement in the preview of an innocent man! Kelly was an outlaw, pure and simple. A cattle thief and horse stealer. And yes, many of the rest of the population of NE Victoria were too, and most were oppressed by the mainly Irish constabulary. So if one can excuse the poetic licence presumably to sell the film in the US market you will find a reasonable representation of the time and place so well done for that. Rush, as always is an absolute star as one of the head police and Ledger was good in the lead role.
So I found this quite a watchable version and certainly superior to the Mick Jagger effort.
