Its strength is that it is a professional critic's contemporaneous assessment, filed from the film's festival premiere, of how the film explains why followers accepted Hamilton-Byrne's apocalyptic authority. Its limit is that it is a short trade press review rather than a sustained scholarly account of the group.FactsClaims Backed By This Source (9 claims)Comments (0)Reader Challenges (0 open reader challenges)FactsCitationAuthorWell-attestedSarah WardPublisherWell-attestedScreen Daily (Screen International)Publication YearWell-attested2016URLWell-attestedhttps://www.screendaily.com/reviews/the-family-melbourne-review/5107140.articleSource TypeWell-attestednews featureAssessmentReliability TierWell-attested2Screen Daily (Screen International) is a trade publication of record for the international film industry; this review is bylined to Sarah Ward, a working film critic, filed from the film's Melbourne International Film Festival premiere.Claims Backed By This Source (9 claims)This source backs 9 claims across the atlas.
