Leuke Australische films

Onlangs hebben wij een aantal leuke Australische films gezien. Films die geen wereldwijde blockbusters geworden zijn, maar daarom niet minder fijn, en wel wereldberoemd in Australiƫ. Als je de kans hebt om ze te bekijken, bvb. op televisie, op video, of gevonden op het Internet, dan zijn ze stuk voor stuk een aanrader. Veel kijkplezier!

The Castle






















The Kerrigan family are a typical aussie "battler" family and living right next to the airport never seemed to be a problem for them until the airport wants to expand - on to their land. Their initial reaction is "f**k the airport" but it soon becomes obvious that airport is going to get its way - one way or another. This is Dale Kerrigan's story of their battle with the airport to keep their beloved house, along with "bloody good set of gates".


Strictly Ballroom









Scott Hastings is a champion caliber ballroom dancer, but much to the chagrin of the Australian ballroom dance community, Scott believes in dancing "his own steps". Fran is a beginning dancer and a bit of an ugly duckly who has the audacity to ask to be Scott's partner after his unorthodox style causes his regular partner to dance out of his life. Together, these two misfits try to win the Australian Pan Pacific Championships and show the Ballroom Confederation that they are wrong when they say, "there are no new steps!"


Red Dog






















Based on the legendary true story of the Red Dog who united a disparate local community while roaming the Australian outback in search of his long lost master.



Etc...

Er zijn natuurlijk nog andere goeie Australische films, meer bekende ook, zoals bvb.:
