MUSIC
The 1970s Punk Rock movement: New
York had The Ramones,
London had Sex Pistols,
Australia had The Saints...
Stranded takes a look at the role four
musicians from suburban Brisbane played in
the explosion of one of the all time greatest
musical movements.
Featuring interviews with the members
of the band, including its leaders
Ed Kuepper and Chris Bailey, as well
as the likes of Sir Bob Geldof, former
Dead Kennedys frontman Jello Biafra
and Buzzcocks guitarist Steve Diggle,
Stranded examines how the oppressive and
conservative government of
Joh Bjelke-Petersen in the 1970s helped
act as a catalyst for the rise of punk rock in
Australia, and how as a result The Saints
went on to be one of the most influential
bands in the country.

BLOKES YOU CAN TRUST
(COSMIC PSYCHOS)
BRIAN ENO
THE MAN WHO FELL TO EARTH 1971 – 1977
For 30 years, the Cosmic Psychos have blazed a trail of
empty beer cans and busted ear drums around the globe with
their quintessential Australian drawl and pounding punk rock
songs. This is an extraordinary tale of Australia’s most unique
cultural ambassadors, who sing about dead kangaroos, pubs
and schnitzels. It’s a tribute to a country lad, a family man, still
rocking and rolling, when most have retired to the couch.
The Man Who Fell To Earth 1971-1977 details Eno’s rapid
ascent during the excitement of a changing music scene,
where electronica was no longer feared, but accepted as a
dynamic and bold assault on the senses.
Best known for his early involvement with key art rock
outfit group, U2, David Bowie, Talking Heads, John Cale,
Depeche Mode, Paul Simon, Devo, Grace Jones and
more recently Coldplay.
Incorporating interviews, audio clips and archival footage
this is a compelling story of an amazing artist, supported by
musical examples, laudatory stories and much more.
“BLOKES YOU CAN TRUST IS ONE OF THE BEST ROCK DOCOS
OF THE PAST DECADE.”

DOGS IN SPACE
THE HARDER THEY COME
Set against the backdrop of Melbourne’s late ‘70s punk rock
scene, Dogs in Space chronicles life in a chaotic, squalid
share-house. Hippies, addicts, students and radicals fill their
days and nights with sex, drugs, parties and television.
Writer/director Richard Lowenstein balances a series
of chaotic vignettes with the central story of the romance
between housemates Sam (Michael Hutchence), the
lead singer of the band, Dogs in Space and his lover Anna
(Saskia Post) as it spirals out of control.
The film that took reggae music to the world, The Harder They
Come is the essential rebel-reggae story of a young Kingston
musician whose attempt to lift himself from poverty leads to
drug dealing and murder.
Reggae legend Jimmy Cliff plays the young musician and
outlaw who fights back against a corrupt system, a man who
finally gets fame and a hit record, as he spends his days on
the run from police and gangsters.
A worldwide cult hit, this defining film gave reggae music a
global audience, and is presented complete and uncut in a
new widescreen transfer.
“ENERGETIC, YOUTHFUL, FREQUENTLY HILARIOUS
AND ULTIMATELY SO SAD, DOGS IN SPACE IS AN
AUSTRALIAN COUNTER-CULTURE CLASSIC.”

70 year-old Claire (Marilou Mermans) is at cross-roads.
A respected chanteuse back in the days of old with darling

and Brian Eno’s most recent collaboration.
Between the songs, the film achieves an unprecedented
intimacy with David Byrne and the band, documenting
behind-the-scenes auditions, rehearsals, and interviews
with key players while revealing the creative process that led
to the show’s unique fusion of pop music and modern dance.

VICTOR VICTORIA

of amber fluid. Welcome to the world of Slim Dusty.
Combining nostalgic historical recreations, exhilarating
concert scenes and on-the-road candid footage with the man
himself, this big screen adventure spans 50 years in the life
of a remarkable performer who was known the world over as
“The Man Who Is Australia”.

Love Song, Victor Victoria has it all.
An out-of-work British soprano, Victoria (Julie Andrews,
reprising the role she made famous), falls in with a downon-his-luck gay man (Tony Roberts, Annie Hall), who gets
the idea to present her as the world’s greatest female
impersonator, “Victor.”
Based on the 1982 film of the same name, this production
was filmed on the Broadway stage in 1995. It includes
extensive new dance numbers and songs by Henry Mancini
& Leslie Bricusse and additional music by Frank Wildhorn.
