Margaret is a national treasure. And I’ve added a couple of films to my watch list.

Excellent.
I’ve watched two of the ten already.

If you live on the Gold Coast, I sent the list to https://hota.com.au and received this reply: In the coming year HOTA is planning to screen some throwback films as a regular part of the program. I have now added your films into the mix of options to investigate for availability for screenings.

Gattaca is an absolutely awesome movie. District 9 is good too. Haven’t seen the others.

Thanks, enjoyed the conversation, I used to look forward to the Movie Show, Margaret and David gave great insight.

Paywalled. Booo!

Gahhh!! I need to know what that other film is that she walked out on and why it can’t be published🤓

I suspect it’s Australian. David and Margaret twisted themselves into knots to defend even the most mediocre of local content. I’m betting on the overblown Australia itself.

Nashville is a great choice but there’s nothing older than the 1970s. Where is the Italian neorealism or French new wave?
