Re: Aussie films
Best - Gallipolli
Worst - Idiot Box.
We had a chat about 'Picnic at Hanging Rock' while back and apparently despite touted about as being a true story, it's completely made up.

Re: Aussie films
Hell, I just replied to this, at length, then pressed the wrong button. Nothing to do with red wine........at all.....
Anyway, what I was saying before my errant fingers rudely interrupted was -
does anyone remember Tim - a very early Mel film. He played a young guy with learning difficulties who has a relationship with the woman he is odd jobbing ('scuse me) for. I fell in love with him at this point. My love was hightened by the first two Max Max films (the second one was on the telly in the last few weeks yum yum Mel).
The Castle, Chopper (humour value only), Strictly ballroom and pleeeease no one diss Priscilla, if only for Guy Pearce's buttocks in that extremely fetching cutaway number he walks up onto the top of King's Canyon in.

Re: Aussie films
I remember 'Tim'.
As for the Kylie film - it was definitely Sample People:
http://www.loaded247.co.uk/index.php?s=2&id=7929
And I quote from one review:
'Want to see Kylie as a sex-mad, gun-toting, coke-snorting hooker?'
Now watch the men flock to buy it

Re: Aussie films
Some of my favorite Aussie movies are:
Romper Stomper
The Sum of Us
Man from Snowy River
Silver Brumby
Storm Boy
Puberty Blues
Bangkok Hilton(Mini Series on TV)
Dons Party
Breaker Morant
Under the Lighthouse Dancing.
There are probably loads more...but these are just off the top of my head.
Cant actually think of any I didnt particularly like.....
