One of the biggest and most beloved hits of the year is Jeremy Sims’ Last Cab To Darwin starring screen icons Michael Caton, David Field & Jacki Weaver. The sterling drama grossed north of $8m at the Australian and New Zealand box office since releasing in August this year and we’re about to get the chance to see it on digital and disc from Wednesday December 9, 2015.
The reviews are unanimous in their praise:
If you’re waiting for the next Aussie film to light up the box office, wait no more because that rare day has arrived. Last Cab to Darwin is a crowd-pleasing gem sure to earn a special place in the hearts of local cinema goers. – Richard Leathem, The Lowdown Under
A certain kind of film, rare in the best of times, that exudes a distinct creative concentration, a precisely measured marinade of character and story that suggests an extended gestation period of forethought and planning. – Variety
All these years after The Castle, Michael Caton has a role to match Darryl “tell ’em they’re dreamin” Kerrigan as a dying taxi driver in Last Cab to Darwin. – Garry Maddox, The Sydney Morning Herald

Caton gives the performance of a lifetime as Rex, a Broken Hill cab driver who, when told he doesn’t have long to live, sets out on an epic journey to Darwin in a bid to die on his own terms. Along the way he discovers that before you can end your life you have to live it, and to live it you have to share it.
