Title Shotgun Wedding
Released 1994
Production Year 0000
Director Paul Harmon
Comments This film was remade by Nadia Tass titled "Mr Reliable". The release poster featured the line, "the original shotgun wedding".

The film itself is a nostalgic look at 60's culture and gender relationships with a wedding scene shot in a bed in their lounge room.
Synopsis Set in the late 1960’s the film is a bizarre drama, a love story and a comedy of errors. Jimmy Becker, fresh out of jail, and his pregnant girlfriend, Helen leave Kings Cross to seek the dream of a normal life in the outer suburbs of Sydney. However, their dream is quickly shattered with the arrival of a bent cop and an arsenal of weapons left by Helen’s schizoid brother. A seige begins which captures the attention of a nation.
