  Scoop: Charles Chauvel: His Attempts to Crush Free Speech
Chauvel, an "openly gay man", has a homosexual partner of 11 years, and a one-year old son, who lives with his mother and her partner.
What Chauvel's website omits to note, is that the High Court ruling in the Living Word case that he trumpets as a success, was overturned on appeal in a unanimous decision of the Full (five member) Court of the Court of Appeal (CA 58/00 dated 31/8/200).
Charles Chauvel's well documented commitment to crushing free speech goes back at least to this 1994 case he was involved in.

Charles Chauvel's affinity with the Australian landscape began during his formative years spent on the family dairy property, 'Summerlands', in the Fassifern district of Southern Queensland.
From an early age Charles Chauvel understood the rewards and the challenges of rural life; this empathy was to be a key feature in his later filmmaking ventures.
Chauvel's father was dismayed that his son turned his back on the soil, although Charles went on to do 'everything in his power to write of it, film it, and sing its praises for the rest of his life'.

 Cunningham on Chauvel
Chauvel, however, was typically involved, or his name was being invoked, on a number of fronts in projections for further production and in lobbying in response to yet another feature film downturn.
As I have argued elsewhere [note 34], "locationism" is an apposite term to describe the intense commitment on Chauvel's part, notwithstanding the massive technical and financial obstacles, to location shooting without implying that this commitment amounted to a coherent sense of its relation to, and difference from, a documentary aesthetic.
Charles effortlessly establishes his intentions of accompanying the group, and the episode proceeds through a series of encounters to establish, and laud, the logic, economy and charm of such a "way of life".

 OZ CINEMA.com : Reviews : Sons of Matthew (1949)
Reflecting the pioneering spirit that has characterised the Australian image for the past two centuries, Charles Chauvel's Sons of Matthew is the resultant product of sheer determination and discovery on behalf of the film's cast and crew.
During the shooting, Chauvel and his crew were forced to battle with the unrelenting and unpredictable forces of nature and, to some extent, showed little respect to the figures of authority that would have liked to shut down the film's production after it ran overtime and overbudget.
Sons Of Matthew is both a technical milestone is Australian film, Chauvel's virtuosity rivaling that of the great Hollywood directors of the time, and stands as a physical representation of the spirit of Australia's founders.

 jedda + night cries: a rural tragedy
One of the most fully mythic and dreamlike of Australian films, Charles Chauvel's Jedda tells the story of an Aboriginal baby raised on a cattle station in the Northern Territory by a white woman after mourning the loss of her own child.
Brought up knowing nothing of her own culture or customs, Jedda's whole life changes dramatically when a young full blood Aboriginal abducts her.
Excessive and melodramatic narration is shaped by the Chauvels' imagination of Jedda's interior vision.

These three films are notable as the definitive expressions of three of Charles Chauvel's most characteristic themes.
It also is significant as the first feature to provide real depth to Aboriginal characters, and it is a measure of Chauvel's courage that he chose to cast two inexperienced young Aborigines in the major roles of Jedda and Marbuk.
The thread that unites Chauvel's body of work is his love of Australian characters, stories, and landscapes, a love to which the body of his film work is an enduring testament.

In agreement with the strategy of the second aspect, it was a justification of the procedure through which the researcher intervenes in the interpretation of the text (also) as a complex personality, that is, in an experiential way, and scholarly operates (also) with that form of the work which is thus given to him/her.
Since the classic of modern semiotics Charles Morris calls the relation of the sign to the interpreter (a human) a pragmatic dimension of semiosis (alongside the syntactic and semantic dimensions), we characterized this conception as pragmatic.
The possibility of evaluating the cognitive effects produced by a multimedia learning tool arises from the semiotics theory of Charles Sanders Peirce : this is the core of the thesis presented by Patrick BENAZET at the university of Perpignan (France) in September 2004.

as a self proclaimed 'Girl Friday' but she did much more than she is credited for.  She worked with Charles on all his scripts, researched and designed costumes, was a make up artist, kept continuity and held a myriad of other jobs, including assistant producer and director. 
Inspired while in the USA to work on a story that could only be told in Australia by Australians, Chauvel began work on Jedda in 1955.  The result is a film that tells the story of an Aboriginal girl who is adopted and raised by a white family on a Northern Territory cattle station.
As a young woman Jedda (Ngarla Kunoth), is drawn to Marbuck (Robert Tudawali), an Aboriginal man who arrives at the station seeking work.  Marbuck takes her captive but is rejected by his tribe for breaking marriage taboos.  Jedda is caught between two worlds, belonging to neither.
