Meer oor hierdie fliek

In 1968, four smart, gutsy young Australian Aboriginal women become unlikely stars by singing for the U.S. troops in Vietnam. With the help of an R&B-loving Irish musician, Dave Lovelace (Chris O'Dowd of BRIDESMAIDS, TV's GIRLS), they transform themselves into a sizzling soul act and set out to make a name for themselves hundreds of miles from home. Inspired by a true story, THE SAPPHIRES is a celebration of music, family, and self-discovery.

Love. Love. Love!! These girls can sing!! Such an uncanny parallel to the uprising of American Girl Groups in the 90s-present day. One should think that the recipe never gets old... I like the Australian perspective, and the song montages were delightful!

I wish that there were more shows made like this! I could watch this show more than once and thoroughly enjoy it. Great acting by actual talented actors, not just beautiful ones.

This was an excellent film, made me want to find out more about these extrodinary women! It is a true story about three sisters and their cousin who are australian and sing beautifully with such harmony. Its one of those underdog films, this is a must see for anyone who likes movies based on true stories.
