Russell Crowe's directorial debut "The Water Diviner" opens today in theaters, so here are seven new clips from the movie. Crowe also stars as a father who travels to turkey after the Battle of Gallipoli in 1919 to search for his three missing sons. The cast also features Olga Kurylenko, Jai Courtney, Isabel Lucas, Cem Yilmaz, Jacqueline McKenzie and Ryan Corr co-star. Winner of three Australian Academy Awards, including Best Picture, the film has been receiving mixed reviews but after seeing it myself, I believe it's worth giving it a shot. Richard Roeper said in his review that the film is "A first-rate post-World War I drama with a heavy dose of sentiment and a gripping storyline." And if you're a fan of Crowe's, his performance doesn't disappoint.
Watch the clips after the jump.
Official Synopsis
"Academy Award winner Russell Crowe (“Gladiator”) makes his directorial debut on “The Water Diviner,” an epic and inspiring tale of one man’s life-changing journey of discovery. Crowe also stars in the film as Australian farmer Joshua Connor, who, in 1919, goes in search of his three missing sons, last known to have fought against the Turks in the bloody Battle of Gallipoli. Arriving in Istanbul, he is thrust into a vastly different world, where he encounters others who have suffered their own losses in the conflict: Ayshe (Olga Kurylenko), a strikingly beautiful but guarded hotelier raising a child alone; her young, spirited son, Orhan (Dylan Georgiades), who finds a friend in Connor; and Major Hasan (Yilmaz Erdoğan), a Turkish officer who fought against Connor’s boys and who may be this father’s only hope. With seemingly insurmountable obstacles in his path, Connor must travel across the battle-scarred Turkish landscape to find the truth…and his own peace."
