CLUB / DONS PARTY / FJ HOLDEN

THE CLUB (1980):
95 minutes
On the Aussie Rules Football field the fans are cheering the high marks as their team battles towards the premiership. But inside, the executives are wheeling and dealing, backslapping and backstabbing. The club buys a talented young player for a record sum of money and typically the team reject him, even with the Captain whose own playing days are numbered. The young star responds with indifference on the field until realising that people live and die according to the success of his team. Adapted from the classic David Williamson play, Bruce Beresford’s legendary comedy-drama stars Jack Thompson, Graham Kennedy and was nominated for 5 AFIs.

DON'S PARTY (1976):
90 minutes
When you mix a left wing teacher, a loud-mouthed sex maniac, a mild-mannered accountant, a failed philosopher, a promiscuous 19 year old nymphette, a frustrated wife, a drunken pornographer, and an arrogant dentist with a lot of booze… anything can happen! Adapted by David Williamson from his own hit stage play, directed by acclaimed filmmaker Bruce Beresford (Breaker Morant, The Club), and starring the A-list of local talent (including Graham Kennedy, John Hargreaves, Graeme Blundell and Ray Barrett), Don’s Party is a crowd-pleasing Aussie favourite.

FJ HOLDEN (1977):
100 minutes
Suburban Australia in the late 70s. It was the era of the drive-in movie, the Chico Roll girl and the beloved FJ. Kevin and Bob, are a couple of teenage rev-heads on their way to becoming adults. By day they work in a wrecking yard, by night they cruise around in the ultimate chick-magnet – a yellow FJ. Boasting alcohol-fuelled escapades, illegal drag racing, a classic Oz rock soundtrack (featuring Ol’ 55, Skyhooks and Renee Geyer) and the screen debut of future star Sigrid Thornton, The Fj Holden remains a classic true-to-life tale of Aussie teens surviving in the suburban sprawl.
