My Brilliant Career (1979) -- (Movie Clip) Mrs. Bossier's Granddaughter The first shot with green vegetation as Sybylla (Judy Davis), sent from her parents' droughted outback farm, is greeted by Frank (Robert Grubb) then her grandmother and aunt (Aileen Britton, Wendy Hughes), in Gillian Armstrong's My Brilliant Career, 1979, from the autobiographical novel by Stella Maria Sarah Miles Franklin.

My Brilliant Career (1979) -- (Movie Clip) Dear Fellow Countrymen The still-startling opening, to director Gillian Armstrong's first feature and Judy Davis' first film, set in 1897 Australia from the acclaimed novel by Stella Maria Sarah Miles Franklin, My Brilliant Career, 1979, also starring Sam Neill.

My Brilliant Career (1979) -- (Movie Clip) You'll Have Me Sacked Sybylla (Judy Davis), visiting her grandmother, aunt and uncle (Aileen Britton, Wendy Hughes, Peter Whitford) in 1901 Australia, has her head plausibly turned by a handsome neighbor (Sam Neill), not realizing he's a childhood friend, Robert Grubb as the less interesting Frank, in Gillian Armstrong's international hit My Brilliant Career, 1979.
