I heart Picnic at hanging rock :eek:

also Shine, Gallipoli, Breaker Morant, the names of the more obscure films escape me...

For Picnic - Watch it in the early hours of the morning either alone or with a very close friend.

yeah, i don't like so much for its supposed depth (even a five year-old could understand some the symbolism in the film), it's the atmosphere that i love about it.

but generally, i think praise is my all time favorite australian film. beautifully drawn characters & performances, excellent dirty three score, a perfect balance of humor and melancholy, etc etc...

The Rage In Placid lake. Its got ben lee and rose byrne in it. its actually really good. I rented it a couple of years back, cause it was in the horror sectiona nd id never heard of it and it turned out to be one of the best comedies ive ever seen
