Two teenagers find love and look for a place where they can be together in peace in this comedy drama from Australia. Samson (Rowan McNamara) is 15 years old and lives in a shabby town in the outback, where he huffs gasoline to get high, hangs out with his friends, and spends his days goofing off and getting into minor trouble. One day, Samson meets Delilah (Marissa Gibson) at the village market, a girl who follows a different path in life -- she looks after her elderly grandmother (Mitjili Gibson), and helps her create paintings that they sell to tourists to support themselves. While Delilah doesn't have much to say to Samson at first, he's immediately taken with her and shows his affection with a graffiti painting. While she's not willing to admit it at first, Delilah has feelings for him as well, and when her grandmother encourages her to follow her heart, the two begin dating. But life is difficult on the outback, and when they both become victims of violence, Samson and Delilah hit the road and begin looking for a town where they can lead a better life. The first feature film from writer and director Warwick Thornton, Samson & Delilah was an official selection at the 2009 Cannes Film Festival, where it was screened as part of the "Un Certain Regard" program. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

New Review For Movie Samson and Delilah
This lovely, aching film opts for romance in the face of modern ruin.Tom Long-Detroit News
This sterling 2009 debut by Warwick Thornton is harrowing and tragic but has a stoic, stately realism that elevates the material way above victim politics.
Cliff Doerksen-Chicago Reader
The film may be hard as hell to watch, but it's even harder to look away from.
Michael O'Sullivan-Washington Post
How do you know you're looking at a pretty good piece of filmmaking? When the director and actors can make you care about the central characters even though they exchange almost no dialogue.
Neil Genzlinger-New York Times
Thornton's modest little story about two indigenous teens had been hailed as ground zero for a glorious new wave in Australian cinema. For once, the hyperbole seems justified...
David Fear-Time Out New York
The spiritual here is every bit as powerful as the physical.
Andrew Schenker-Village Voice
One of the great political films, masked as one of the best personal films, of 21st-century cinema. For all its unsparing, quietly condemning look at Australia's treatment of Aborigines today, it ends on a grace note of devotion and tender care.
Brian Gibson-Vue Weekly (Edmonton, Canada)
Director Warwick Thornton's artistic choices alienated me as viewer and made me pray for the end.
Adam Ross-The Aristocrat
Spare and beautiful, Samson & Delilah gives viewers a peephole into two characters' struggle in a corner of the earth not visited enough on film.
Sarah Sluis-Film Journal International
There's little dialogue in Samson and Delilah and the film has a gritty, sun-baked poeticism to it.
Beth Accomando-KPBS.org
Thornton's grip on familiar narrative tropes comes to more and more resemble a choke-hold up until the film's lovely final moments
Chris Cabin-Filmcritic.com
Thornton isn't concerned about filling in the lines, requiring viewers to make the connections for themselves. The film is all the more engaging for it.
Annlee Ellingson-Moving Pictures Magazine
A poetic, tender and unflinchingly real love story. Its powerful visuals, music and raw, captivating performances will leave you feeling deeply moved.
Avi Offer-NYC Movie Guru
The actors succeed at portraying a couple whose bond is strong enough to not require words.
Ethan Alter-NYC Film Critic
Pitched somewhere between City Of God and the Dardenne brothers, Samson And Delilah is unsparing in its brutal vision of the world.
Sam Adams-AV Club
A unstinting look at the social outcasts of Australian society made by a member of aboriginal society, its grim narrative punctuated by off-kilter humor in a minimalist style.
Louis Proyect-rec.arts.movies.reviews
Director/writer Warwick Thornton makes the mistake that hobbles too many new filmmakers: an overindulgence on arresting visuals but a deficit of compelling storytelling.
Phil Hall-Film Threat
First-timers McNamara and Gibson deliver instinctive, assured performances.
Alistair Harkness-Scotsman
Thornton's command of space, location and mood is exemplary, recalling the Taiwanese master Tsai-ming Liang in the way this love story plays out in the interstitial spaces of the city.
Matt Bochenski-Little White Lies
An extremely grim story of a particularly nasty culture clash, and yet writer-director Thornton tells it with wit and irony
Rich Cline-Shadows on the Wall
