Easy to read short analysis of 3 feature films and their successes in Australia and overseas.
It is interesting to note that all 3 films were made by first-time feature directors who either wrote or co-wrote scripts.
The author concldues that the future for the industry is bright, but only if new talent is nurtured - she notes that these three successes struggled to find finance.
The author also comments on the lack of financial disclosure surrounding the Australian film industry, and that this hampers accurate and in-depth analysis.
