| Summary |
Winner of an AFI for best documentary in 2008, Not Quite Hollywood is an irreverent look at the burgeoning Australian film industry in the 1970s.The film follows the wild, wonderful, untold story of 'Ozploitation' cinema; a time when Australian cinema got its gear off and showed the world a full-frontal explosion of sex, violence, horror and foot-to-the-floor, full bore action!This is not your usual documentary full of boring anecdotes by dull historians, instead these are the real stories from the people who were there - wild, trail-blazing cinematic mavericks who snubbed their nose at authority, made their own rules and in the process introduced the car chase, karate kicks, BMX bikes and the water-bed to Australian cinema screens.Includes interviews with Quentin Tarantino, Dennis Hopper, Jamie Lee Curtis, Barry Humphries, Phillip Adams, Steve Bisley, Graeme Blundell, Barry Crocker, Bob Ellis, Rebecca Gilling, John Michael Howson, John Jarratt, Barry Jones, George Lazenby, Hal McElroy, George Miller, Judy Morris, Fred Schepisi, Sigrid Thornton, John Waters, Leigh Whannell, Susannah York, Bruce Beresford and Wendy Hughes (Commissioned by SBS in English) (Documentary) 2008 MA, V (L,S,V,N) CC WS |
