Death of an actor, and a fine film

Yeah, I know I'm supposed to be on vacation, but I couldn't let this pass without a comment: 
David Ngoombujarra, one of Australia's best known indigenous actors whose films included "Australia" and "Rabbit-Proof Fence," has died. He was 44.

If you've never seen "Rabbit-Proof Fence", do yourself a favor and watch it.  Not only is it a brilliant film, it is a story that should not be forgotten, and is unknown by most Americans.
