I remember seeing the movie, "The Sundowners," many years ago.. If I remember correctly, it starred Robert Mitchum and ..... uhhhhhh.... Deborah Kerr, I think. Excellent picture of life in OZ at that time. And was as good the second time, too when it made the rounds on TV. Speaking of Aussie movies, I enjoyed "Phar Lap," a lot, tho that might have been I'm a pushover for movies about horses. <grin> Ohhhh.... another terrific, but scary as HE*L was "The Last Wave," starring as well as directed by Richard Chamberlin. WOWIE!!! I was scared outta my wits when I saw THAT picture. It's really strange how something as simple as a diggeredoo (spelling?) , with it's repetitious single note and tone, can express SO much passion and fear. I've looked for a tape of "The Last Wave" for years. but never found one. Darn....
