  • From The Film Australia Collection. Made by the Film Australia 1978. Directed by David Roberts. This film shows three dances of traditional Aboriginal dance performed by David Gulpilil. The Emu and The Kangaroo are solo performances, while the third dance, The Fish, is a group dance performed with some people from Bamyili, in the Northern Territory. All three dances are accompanied by the didgeridoo and clap sticks. Kangaroo and Fish also feature vocal accompaniments.

    This music was recorded by my grandmother in 1963.
    You can get it on CD “Songs From the Northern Territory- Alice M Moyle” it was released by the Australian Institute of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Studies

    This is the best video I've ever seen on Aboriginal dance. Dance isnt even the perfect word for what he is doing. It's awesome, I especially loved Kangaroo.

      I suppose it's sort of a combination of dance and acting. I think I preferred the emu one, but with the kangaroo, he must have had the most fantastically strong thighs.

    • @rainbow72878

      @@thegreenmanofnorwich it tells a story, it passes on information, it reflects his environment. :) it's so his culture. I guess, yup, one would have to have pretty strong thighs.

    My God! I didn't know he had passed. I saw Walkabout in the theater about 5x, I saw him in Rabbit Proof Fence and I thought I'd just look him up here out of interest. what an amazing man. Rest in Peace, David.

    From what I remember when it was first broadcast on ‘This Day Tonight’ on the ABC - he was 17. Amazing presence - still is.

    He really does have incredible balance. I'm not sure it was quite up my street performance-wise, but I'm glad I had the chance to see it.

    Become the animal to catch the animal in body and mind blend with the animals energies it similar to native american indian shamens and the Druids in shapeshifting . So i would think they tapping into like some sort of collective conscousness in the astral realms through a trance like state

    I don't know much about Australian Aboriginal culture, why is there a warning before the video?

    • @NFSAFilms
      @NFSAFilms  Před 5 lety +11

      Hi, thanks for your comment. Many Aboriginal groups have custom / laws that prohibit the image being shown or sometimes speaking of the name of deceased people. Out of respect for those customs we have an agreement with representatives of Australian Aboriginal communities that we add this warning to the start of our historical films so as to alert them to fact that there are people featured in the film that are most likely deceased. Aboriginal viewers can then decide if viewing the film is appropriate or not.

    • @KMO325
      @KMO325 Před 5 lety +3

      Ok, I guessed that, but wasn't sure. Thanks for letting me know. Here in the United States, I believe the Navajo and Pueblo people have similar rules.
