Movie night in Mapua
Don't forget
This Sunday at the Packhouse Cinema . . . .
Three Summers
Ben Elton has done a terrific job of capturing everyday Australians; the good and the bad and the ugly.
This Australian movie had so many laughs along with serious moments. I find that some movies depend on big names to carry it but this is just not the case with Three Summers. I wonder how many takes they had for some of the scenes with Magda Szubanski. Her dialogue was hilarious and she did it with a straight face,
but I don't know how.
Peter Rowsthorn did the same scene 3 times in the movie and it just got funnier and funnier. Michael Caton did such a credible job of the older bigoted Australian, that all I could see was my father-in-law until the turnaround at the end. I could go on and on but I don't want to spoil it. Go see it for yourself. There's something for everyone; young and old. I haven't even mentioned the music. Go hear it for yourself. I'm getting the DVD when it comes out. It's going to be a classic like “The Castle!”
Let's meet for a drink and something to eat at the Sprig and Fern opposite the hall.
