Encyclopedia > Breaker Morant (film)

Breaker Morant is a 1980 Australian feature film, directed by Bruce Beresford and starring British actor Edward Woodward in the title role. Beresford co-wrote the screenplay. Although the screen credit is given to Kenneth Ross for his play as the source material for the adaptation, the screen story also owes a great deal to the novel The Breaker by Kit Denton, first published in 1973, which was inspired by Denton's meeting and conversation with a Boer War veteran who had known South Africa, principal photography was done entirely in Australia. The all-Australian supporting cast features Bryan Brown as Lieutenant Handcock, Lewis FitzGerald as Witton and Jack Thompson as Major Thomas.


The film was critically acclaimed in the United States and was nominated for the 1980 Academy Award for Writing Adapted Screenplay.
