Comments Quotes:



Griffiths : " Quality is much more important than box office returns, and the fact that these films challenged the international view of the way we see ourselves was great. All that diversity carries as well and shows we have a complexity of creativity here."

Synopsis This article discusses the poor audience response of Australlian films by local audiences, which in 1998, only 3.8 % of the total audience market was Australian cinema. Griffiths is used to support the arguement that quality is still more important than box office success and seems to provide a perspective from an Australian overseas and how she perceives our films are being received.
