  • AN OUTLAW INDUSTRY Bushrangers on the Big Screen: 1906-1993
    Greater Union Organisation/Ken G. Hall Award AN OUTLAW INDUSTRY Bushrangers on the big screen: 1906-1993 A paper 2600 words © David Lowe March 1995 email: [email protected] 1. Bushranger films have dominated the history of Australian cinema. From The Story of the Kelly Gang (1906) to Reckless Kelly (1993), the ghosts of Australia’s outlaw period have been revived, on flickering screens, in more than thirty films, as well as several television productions. In this paper I intend to examine the reasons for this ongoing fascination with the bushranger legend, with particular reference to concurrent events in Australian society. Despite the endurance of the genre, it has rarely been easy going for the producers of bushranger films (or their audiences for that matter!) Always subject to the whims of fashion, the bushranger film has also been buffeted by American imports, criticism about historical accuracy, and, in some states, outright banning by conservative forces. Before all that though, were the glory years. IN THE BEGINNING The movie business has long been characterised by a close relationship between art and commerce, so it is probably not surprising that our first bushranger film, and probably the world’s longest narrative film at the time, was created for economic reasons. In 1906 a play called The Kelly Gang began drawing crowds away from Living London, an actuality film which was being distributed by Millard Johnson and his brother-in-law William A. Gibson.1 Having obtained the rights, Johnson & Gibson made the leap from film distribution to production, and The Story of the Kelly Gang was born.

  • THE MELANCHOLY SPECTACLES a STUDY of THC AUSTRALIAN FILM INDUSTRY Jujian Craft
    THE MELANCHOLY SPECTACLES A STUDY OF THC AUSTRALIAN FILM INDUSTRY Jujian Craft One of the problems in talking about the Australian film industry is that it is an industry. One has to forget about the lofty ideals of art and recognise that like any other industry it must be efficient and progressive. If it is not and it can't compete with overseas products then it must be protected. For the government to reach this decision it must feel that the film industry is of vital national importance, or that imports of foreign films place too great a strain on our overseas reserves. It is possible that once a viable Australian feature film industry exists the Australian experience might produce an article which is unique and, as such, valuable in international markets. Thus an import loss might become an export gain. These prosaic considerations are unfortunately the only facts which will influence a reticent government to take direct action to support the film industry. At the moment the government is not particularly concerned about the cultural aspects of a national film industry, and possibly this is a good thing as the encouragement of feature films which would be distinctly Australian would 'lead to the gross perversiOnS of excessive nationalism which have bedevilled so much of Australia's artistic expression. The main concern at the moment should be to put the film industry on a firm economic foundation. 4.5 At -the present time the film industry is in a very precarious position. Since 1960 when legislation was passed to prohibit the importation of foreign television commercials the industry has been dependent on advertising contracts.

HEADINGLY 278 890553 PREFACE IN writing these reminiscences I have been persuaded by my friends to give my life and anecdotes exactly as they stand in my memory, but in doing so I find some difficulty in blowing my own horn without making myself out to be more than I am. However, as no one else can give my life, I must ask my readers to remember, in the lines of Will Carleton, that "For people's lives, full well we know, Two sets of things recall, The one of which we always tell, The other not at all." I was born in 1842, and, if not a pioneer, I certainly think I was a pioneer baby of those born two hundred miles west of Sydney, and I was probably a year or two old before the first clergyman came into that part of the country.
