Barnaby Smith's lively and thoroughly researched account of Sons of Matthew not only offers a considered critical response to the film, but also places it in several revealing contexts. These include Charles Chauvel's own background, the difficulties in financing the project, the sheer physical challenges of shooting in a daunting landscape and the cultural climate of the film's production in matters such as racism, sexism and emerging nationalism. It is a film that may offer rewards to a range of historians – of cinema or otherwise.
