Comments This article reflects on all the interesting issues the film addresses, and seems to have a more detailed understanding (than a lot of other articles on Body Melt) of how these factors influence the context of the film.
Synopsis An interview with Philip Brophy about his film Body Melt, the article discusses Brophy’s ‘philosophical victory’ over the AFC, whom he had to convince that the film would broaden Australian film culture in order to get funding from them. The article also comments on the casting of various soap stars in lead roles, and the ‘mental baggage’ they brought to the story.
