The need for human beings to address the past in order to live properly in the present is memorably realized in "Beautiful Kate," a highly accomplished writing-helming debut by thesp Rachel Ward. Carefully transporting Newton Thornburg's ("Cutter and Bone") 1982 Chicago-set novel to an Aussie farm, Ward delivers a visually beautiful and emotionally rewarding study of a dying patriarch and his estranged son. A narrative strand dealing frankly with taboo sexuality places the pic firmly in the arthouse realm, where it should be embraced locally and in selected offshore territories. Pic will be released Down Under on Aug. 6. 13 years ago
