| | | ive only seen priscilla, chopper, and romper stomper. ive not even really heard of many others to be honest. does that make me a niave american?
all of those are worth seeing though. the last two mostly for the acting. prscilla was def. all around very solid.
some of those titles you list sound famialir though.... |

The Castle - might be a bit too Aussie for some.
Most of the movies on your list are a bit grim Dude....one of the above might be more entertaining.
What about Crocodile Dundee?

| | | An obscure Aussie film I really enjoyed was 15 Amore, about Italian prisoners of war on a farm during WW2, and the family that hosted them. Low-key, but quite enjoyable.
I love Picnic at Hanging Rock too. It's not slow-moving, it's deliberate... |
