Special Presentations: Memories of a Cameraman by Richard Keys Richard Keys falling in love with film, left university as a teenager to become Newsreel Cameraman with Movietone News before moving to Cinesound as Production Cameraman. He later pursued his passion for film behind the lens in film studios around the world and in film funding and archival organisations; he is now Curator Emeritus of the National Film and Sound Archive (NFSA). Richard will talk about the powerful role film has played in his life and will be presenting a special program “Memories of a Film Cameraman”. He will be talking about his experiences over many years and showing five clips from some the greatest newsreel footage ever filmed such as the 1950’s floods in the Hunter Valley where many lives and homes were lost and the warfront on the Kododa Trail in Papua New Guinea. Newsfront Introduced by Richard Brennan Richard Brennan has had a long career as a Producer in film and television and has also worked as a Project Manager at Screen Australia. He continues to mentor young filmmakers. His most recent credit is as Producer of The Long Goodbye, a short feature directed by Samantha Rebillet. He produced Grievous Bodily Harm, which was shown at Katoomba. Richard was the Associate Producer of Newsfront and has a very impressive filmography, many of them winning awards. The films include: Homesdale, The Office Picnic, The Love Letters From Teralba Road, Stir, Long Weekend, Molly, Starstruck, Mad Dog Morgan, The Trespassers, The Removalist and The Great McCarthy. Richard will be introducing and talking about the outstanding Australian film of the 1970’s Newsfront (see below) which won an incredible 11 AFI Awards in 1978 including Best Film, and was nominated for another four. Films: NEWSFRONT Dir: Phillip Noyce, Australia, dvd, 1978 111 mins, Col, Cast: Bill Hunter, Wendy Hughes, Gerard Kennedy, Chris Haywood, John Ewart, Don Crosby, Angela Punch McGregor, John Clayton, John Dease, Bryan Brown, Lorna Lesley, Mark Holden. Philip Noyce's film moves between two stories of rivalry and ambition. The first rivalry involves two newsreel companies: Cinetone, owned by A.G. Marwood, a typical Australian working class man made good, and Newco, personified by maverick cameraman Charlie Henderson. The other rivalry is of a more deeply felt nature and involves brothers Len and Frank Maguire, both employed at Cinetone. The newsreel footage provides more than easy nostalgia. Through the eyes of Len we are allowed to re- live milestone events of the 1950s, such as the referendum to ban the Communist Party, Redex round-Australia car trial, The Maitland floods and the Olympic Games. But we also become witness to the events that shape and undo Len and Franck's life, Len's deteriorating marriage and Frank decision to step out from Len's shadow and leave for America. As television invades the home and newsreels become a thing of the past, the film becomes a reflection on a passing era and particular quality of working man, loyal, honourable and resourceful. 'Newsfront' is one of the gems of the Australian Cinema Renaissance of the 1970s. Some of Australia’s finest actors of that era were in the film. Critics comment: The way the newsreels are woven into the fictionalized story is seamless. GOODBYE LENIN Dir: Tom Tykwer, Germany, dvd, 1999, 120 mins, col, Cast: Franka Potente, Moritz Bleibtreu, Herbert Knaup, Armin Rhode. A dedicated young German boy pulls off an elaborate scheme to keep his mother in good health in this comedy drama from director Wolfgang Becker. Suffering a heart attack and falling into a coma after seeing her son arrested during a protest, Alex's (Daniel Brühl) socialist mother, Christiane (Katrin Sass), remains comatose through the fall of the Berlin wall and the German Democratic Republic. Knowing that the slightest shock could prove fatal upon his mother's awakening, Alex strives to keep the fall of the GDR a secret for as long as possible. Keeping their apartment firmly rooted in the past, Alex's scheme works for a while, but it's not long before his mother is feeling better and ready to get up and around again. The illusion remains perfect until one day the truth can no longer be concealed. The clever comedy was the most successful German film of the year in 2003. Nominated for Best Foreign Language Film in 2004 BAFTA & Golden Globes. Critics Consensus: Funny and poignant social critique of German reunification. THE LIVES OF OTHERS (Das Leben der Anderen) Dir: Florian Henckel von Donnersmarck, Germany, dvd, 2005, 137 mins, col, Cast: Martina Gedeck, Ulrich Muhe, Sebastian Koch, Ulrich Tukur, Thomas Thieme. Gerd Wiesler is an officer with the Stasi, the East German secret police. The film begins in 1984 when Wiesler attends a play written by Georg Dreyman, who is considered by many to be the ultimate example of the loyal citizen. Wiesler has a gut feeling that Dreyman can't be as ideal as he seems and believes surveillance is called for. The Minister of Culture agrees but only later does Wiesler learn that the Minister sees Dreyman as a rival and lusts after his partner Christa-Maria. The more time he spends listening in on them, the more he comes to care about them. The once rigid Stasi officer begins to intervene in their lives, in a positive way, protecting them whenever possible. Eventually, Wiesler activities catch up to him and while there is no proof of wrongdoing, he finds himself in menial jobs - until the unbelievable happens. Winner of Academy Award Best Foreign Language Film in 2007. Critics Consensus: Unlike more traditional spy films, The Lives of Others doesn't sacrifice character for cloak and dagger chases, and the performances stay with you. Wadjda Dir: Haifee Al-Mansour, Saudi Arabia dvd, 2012, 98 mins, col, Cast: Waad Mohammed, Reem Abdullah, Abdullrahman Al Gohani. WADJDA is a 10-year-old girl living in a suburb of Riyadh, the capital of Saudi Arabia. Although she lives in a conservative world, Wadjda is fun loving, entrepreneurial and always pushing the boundaries of what she can get away with. After a fight with her friend Abdullah, a neighbourhood boy she shouldn't be playing with, Wadjda sees a beautiful green bicycle for sale. She wants the bicycle desperately so that she can beat Abdullah in a race. But Wadjda's mother won't allow it, fearing repercussions from a society that sees bicycles as dangerous to a girl's virtue. So Wadjda decides to try and raise the money herself. At first, Wadjda's mother is too preoccupied with convincing her husband not to take a second wife to realize what's going on. And soon enough Wadjda's plans are thwarted when she is caught running various schemes at school. Just as she is losing hope of raising enough money, she hears of a cash prize for a Koran recitation competition at her school. WADJDA is a movie of firsts. This first feature film shot entirely in Saudi Arabia .Even more impressive, WADJDA is the first feature film made by a female Saudi filmmaker. In a country where cinemas are banned and women cannot drive or vote, writer- director Haifaa Al Mansour has broken many barriers with her new film. Critics Consensus: Transgressive in the best possible way, Wadjda presents a startlingly assured new voice from a corner of the globe where cinema has been all but silenced. Kiss Me Kate Dir: George Sidney, USA, dvd, 1953, 110 mins, col, Cast: Kathryn Grayson, Howard Keel, Ann Miller, Keenan Wyn, Bobby Van, Tommy Rall. Adapted from the celebrated Cole Porter musical, with its sparkling songs and dazzling wit 'Kiss Me Kate', is loosely based on Shakespeare's 'Taming of the Shrew'.

  • Bruce Beresford's Breaker Morant Re-Viewed
    FILMHISTORIA Online Vol. 30, núm. 1 (2020) · ISSN: 2014-668X The Boers and the Breaker: Bruce Beresford’s Breaker Morant Re-Viewed ROBERT J. CARDULLO University of Michigan Abstract This essay is a re-viewing of Breaker Morant in the contexts of New Australian Cinema, the Boer War, Australian Federation, the genre of the military courtroom drama, and the directing career of Bruce Beresford. The author argues that the film is no simple platitudinous melodrama about military injustice—as it is still widely regarded by many—but instead a sterling dramatization of one of the most controversial episodes in Australian colonial history. The author argues, further, that Breaker Morant is also a sterling instance of “telescoping,” in which the film’s action, set in the past, is intended as a comment upon the world of the present—the present in this case being that of a twentieth-century guerrilla war known as the Vietnam “conflict.” Keywords: Breaker Morant; Bruce Beresford; New Australian Cinema; Boer War; Australian Federation; military courtroom drama. Resumen Este ensayo es una revisión del film Consejo de guerra (Breaker Morant, 1980) desde perspectivas como la del Nuevo Cine Australiano, la guerra de los boers, la Federación Australiana, el género del drama en una corte marcial y la trayectoria del realizador Bruce Beresford. El autor argumenta que la película no es un simple melodrama sobre la injusticia militar, como todavía es ampliamente considerado por muchos, sino una dramatización excelente de uno de los episodios más controvertidos en la historia colonial australiana. El director afirma, además, que Breaker Morant es también una excelente instancia de "telescopio", en el que la acción de la película, ambientada en el pasado, pretende ser una referencia al mundo del presente, en este caso es el de una guerra de guerrillas del siglo XX conocida como el "conflicto" de Vietnam.

  • 1 Dear Senators, My Name Is Jane Longhurst
    The Legal and Constitutional References Committee – Impact of the 2014 and 2015 Commonwealth Budget Decisions on the Arts Dear Senators, My name is Jane Longhurst; I am 49 years old and an established, professional actor of twenty-five years standing based in Hobart, Tasmania. Since graduating from Victorian College of the Arts I have performed in some of Australia’s best loved television series (including Blue Heelers, GP, Janus, A Country Practice) and have worked with some of our iconic performing arts companies such as HotHouse Theatre and Flying Fruit Fly Circus both based in Albury Wodonga. I have performed Shakespeare outdoors, create original performance work, work as a voice artist and help develop dozens of new Australian plays. In short, I’m a jobbing actor in Australia. I write to express my outrage and astonishment at the recent appropriation of $104.8 million from the Australia Council budget to establish a new arts funding program to be administered at the discretion of the Minister for the Arts, Senator George Brandis. My outrage is based on the lack of sector consultation that preceded this decision; my astonishment is that yet again, the arts community is being forced to justify its existence and squabble over further depleted funds through the Australia Council. My letter will address the Terms of Reference: (a) the impact of the 2014-2015 Commonwealth Budget decisions on the arts with particular focus on: (A) the small to medium sector and (B) individual artists. As reported recently (www.crikey.com.au, 15 June 2015), ‘…the proposed funding cuts to the Australia Council announced in the May budget equate to 28% of the federal arts funding body’s discretionary funding’.

  • A Dark New World : Anatomy of Australian Horror Films
    A dark new world: Anatomy of Australian horror films Mark David Ryan Faculty of Creative Industries, Queensland University of Technology A thesis submitted in fulfillment of the degree Doctor of Philosophy (PhD), December 2008 The Films (from top left to right): Undead (2003); Cut (2000); Wolf Creek (2005); Rogue (2007); Storm Warning (2006); Black Water (2007); Demons Among Us (2006); Gabriel (2007); Feed (2005). ii KEY WORDS Australian horror films; horror films; horror genre; movie genres; globalisation of film production; internationalisation; Australian film industry; independent film; fan culture iii ABSTRACT After experimental beginnings in the 1970s, a commercial push in the 1980s, and an underground existence in the 1990s, from 2000 to 2007 contemporary Australian horror production has experienced a period of strong growth and relative commercial success unequalled throughout the past three decades of Australian film history. This study explores the rise of contemporary Australian horror production: emerging production and distribution models; the films produced; and the industrial, market and technological forces driving production. Australian horror production is a vibrant production sector comprising mainstream and underground spheres of production. Mainstream horror production is an independent, internationally oriented production sector on the margins of the Australian film industry producing titles such as Wolf Creek (2005) and Rogue (2007), while underground production is a fan-based, indie filmmaking subculture, producing credit-card films such as I know How Many Runs You Scored Last Summer (2006) and The Killbillies (2002). Overlap between these spheres of production, results in ‘high-end indie’ films such as Undead (2003) and Gabriel (2007) emerging from the underground but crossing over into the mainstream.
