The Dressmaker worked for me. This one is more like a surreal story, couture aspectes used to enhance the effect (small town women wearing runway quality gowns under the merciless sun and dust of rural landscape). Kate Winslet is dynamite as usual the rest of the cast are also very good. However do not expect this film to make sense in a realistic way. The message and the human characteristics are all there but somehow do not quite fit the setting. I recommend Pricilla The Queen of the Desert if you'd like to see a better application to this sort of story telling.
