YMMV / Rabbit-Proof Fence

• Awesome Music: The entire score, by Peter Gabriel.
• Complete Monster: Mr. A. O. Neville—nicknamed "Mr. Devil" by his victims—is the "Chief Protector of the Aborigines", who uses his position of power to enforce his own racist desires onto Australia. Holding the Aboriginal people in contempt and wishing to slowly breed out Aboriginal blood in "half-caste" children, Neville signs a decree in which any children born from one white parent and one Aboriginal parent are ripped away from their homes and thrown into the Moore River Native Settlement, a labor camp where the children are forcibly trained into becoming servants for white society. Through this, Neville hopes to see a mass eugenics scheme come to fruition, in which all of the "trained" half-caste children are married off to white partners and their children have their Aboriginal bloodline bred out of them. Neville oversees the camp and ensures that any children who try to escape or otherwise misbehave are brutally whipped bloody and locked in cages in the heat, and he keeps one of his best minions in line by holding the man's daughter hostage at Moore River. Despite his proclamations of "helping the natives", Neville is a corrupt supremacist who reigned for 25 years and ruined thousands of lives, and is happy to tear families apart and sentence children to lives as slaves who are physically and sexually abused in his mad quest for white blood propagation.
• Fridge Horror: If the girls had stayed at Moor River, they might have met a similiar fate as Mavis had. Even worse, this might have happened to Gracie after she was recaptured.
• Nightmare Fuel: Kenneth Branagh as Mr. Neville. Other villains he played were Chewing the Scenery and a Large Ham. Here he plays it completely straight, completely sincere and completely accurate, showing the very real idea of (inaccurately) honestly seeing the aborigines as subhuman and breeding out the race as more frightening than even the most vile, threatening fictional evil. It's made even worse because views such as these are Truth in Television.
• Retroactive Recognition: Jason Clarke plays one of the officers who take Molly and her sisters away from their mother.
• Stoic Woobie: Moodo. Not only does he have to watch his own daughter become a servant, but he also can never go home.
