All these photos by Paul Henderson, 17th August 2008.

The outdoor screening on a very cool but cloudless night at the Lass was a success… I’ll post more here soon. Just trying to avoid computer-hunching for a while. Nm

Two weeks till the next screening, and there will be merchandise.

…sink the fucker.

Footy players & their girlfriends posing for photos on the red carpet in designer clothes = Australian Film Culture!? Nm

My uncle, George Fordham, passed away on the weekend & I will miss him. He was a bloody good bloke… (And I will share some [loosely “cinema” related] stories about him here soon.) Nm

Toby & I have recently been working flat out on other things - building a family home & shooting stuff - but we still have our mind on the streetsweeper job & will keep you posted. The tour? Looks like we’re just gonna go to Deniliquin & Braidwood!? Nm (Off to shoot something now.)

So, we made the best film we could & we honestly thought that it had a fairly good chance of screening here & there on the international film festival circuit. But, alas, this was not to be (The best comic figures are often deluded!). We did not make a festival film after all: it seems like every unAmerican filmmaker in the world is now compelled to use the festival circuit to get their films seen, and we had some mighty competition. Next, the tour. Nm
