Title A strong voice for Australian cinema
Author(s)Steve Taylor
Publication Date 19-11-1987
Page Number unknown
Comments This article makes some rather large assumptions regarding the Australian film industry and how it is perceived by Australians due to the limited box office business generated by Australian Film Institute Awards.
Overall, the article gives praise to The Year My Voice Broke and highly recommends Australian audiences give the film a fair viewing in light of the praise it has received in the Australian Film Institute Awards, 1987.
The article interestingly states that although Duigan explores themes familiar to Australian audiences ie adolescence and coming-of-age, he still manages to represent a skill and level of freshness worthy of attention.
Synopsis Article contains review of film and brief synopsis.
The major point of the article leans towards an analysis of the state of the Australian film industry and how it is perceived by local audiences.
