Racial Tragedy, Australian History, and the New Australian Cinema: Fred Schepisi's the Chant of Jimmie Blacksmith Revisited
FILMHISTORIA Online Vol. 28, núms. 1-2 (2018) · ISSN: 2014-668X Racial Tragedy, Australian History, and the New Australian Cinema: Fred Schepisi’s The Chant of Jimmie Blacksmith Revisited ROBERT J. CARDULLO University of Michigan Abstract The Chant of Jimmie Blacksmith (1978) broke ground in its native country for dealing bluntly with one of the most tragic aspects of Australian history: the racist treatment of the aboriginal population. Adapted faithfully from the 1972 novel by Thomas Keneally, the film concerns a young man of mixed race in turn-of-the-century Australia who feels torn between the values and aspirations of white society, on the one hand, and his aboriginal roots, on the other, and who ultimately takes to violence against his perceived white oppressors. This essay re-views The Chant of Jimmie Blacksmith from the following angles: its historical context; its place in the New Australian Cinema; its graphic violence; and the subsequent careers of the film’s director, Fred Schepisi, and its star, Tommy Lewis. Keywords: The Chant of Jimmie Blacksmith; Fred Schepisi; Thomas Keneally; New Australian Cinema; racism and colonialism Prior to the late 1970s, Australia was something of a cinematic backwater. Occasionally, Hollywood and British production companies would turn up to use the country as a backdrop for films that ranged from the classic (On the Beach [1959]) to the egregious (Ned Kelly [1970], starring Mick Jagger). But the local movie scene, for the most part, was sleepy and unimaginative and very few Australian films traveled abroad. Then, without warning, Australia suddenly experienced an efflorescence of imaginative filmmaking, as movies such as Picnic at Hanging Rock (1975), The Getting of Wisdom (1977), My Brilliant Career (1979), and Breaker Morant (1980) began to be shown all over the world. -

A Caring and Hard-Working Mum the Life of Clara 'Minnie' Broadie
A caring and hard-working mum The life of Clara ‘Minnie’ Broadie 1899-1980 By Julie Poulter © 2019 Clara Broadie was my paternal great grandmother. She died when I was eight years old and I only have a few memories of her, despite her being in my life at least weekly for all those years. I am in the process of piecing together her life, with the help of family members who knew her better than I. She was known as Nan Hill to me and her death in 1980 was the first death that really affected me. It’s when I learnt that people you love do go away forever. A few years later my cousins and I held a séance trying to communicate with her one last time; we weren’t successful, but it just shows how important a part of our lives she had been. She was a tiny woman who left a large imprint on our lives. Clara Broadie was born on the 6th September 1899 in Wattle Flat, near Bathurst, New South Wales. Her parents were George Broadie and Ellen Core. Clara was their first child, born four and a half months after her parents had married. Clara was delivered by her grandmother Mary Ann Core. Family legend is that Clara was born prematurely and was so small she had to wrapped in cotton wool and kept alive with goat’s milk. September in that part of Australia is a crisp affair, with average temperatures at night around two degrees. It is not known how premature Clara was, but she was clearly strong enough to survive her parents care and survival methods. -

1 INTRODUCTION the Australian Poet, Henry Lawson, Referred To
INTRODUCTION The Australian poet, Henry Lawson, referred to Darlinghurst Gaol in his poem “One Hundred and Three” as “Starvinghurst Goal” where prisoners were kept alone in dark cells and starved. This is the stereotype of the Victorian era gaol, whereas reality was quite different after the reforms initiated by New South Wales politician, Henry Parkes. His Select Committee of 1861 found the food in New South Wales gaols to be abundant, good and wholesome by contrast. There is also a contrasting reality for death rates in these gaols. The aim of this thesis is to show the reality of causes of death in the late Victorian era gaols by comparing the death rates and causes of death in Darlinghurst Gaol, Sydney’s main gaol from 1841 to 1914 and Auburn State Prison, the oldest existing prison in the New York State prison system, dating from 1817. Auburn Correctional Facility, as it is now known, gave its name to the “Auburn System” which included being the first institution to use separate cells for inmates, congregate work during the day, enforced silence, lockstep walking, striped uniforms and the use of the lash, or corporal punishment, as a form of punishment. It was the focus of great interest in penology and influenced the subsequent construction of many similar prisons in the USA and overseas. There has been no previous analysis of the records on the various causes of death in Victorian era gaols or the death rates in these gaols and no comparative study of gaol 1 death rates to the relevant general population to see if they were better or worse (worse being the popular perception prior to the results of the research involved in this thesis). -
