- His career highlighted landmark roles in films such as Rabbit-Proof Fence (2002) and The Tracker, with ongoing notes about his influence on Australian cinema and Indigenous storytelling.[3][2]
- Posthumous tributes and analyses have continued to reflect on his life, artistry, and the two worlds he inhabited—traditional Yolngu country and global film stages.[9][2]
