Aussie movies

Another thing, I have signed up with Netflix for my remaining time here, with the sole purpose of watching as many Australian movies as possible in a desperate attempt to glean insight into the national character and to get used to their accent! So far, I have seen:

1. Oscar and Lucinda (beautiful--loneliness and isolation are a piece of the puzzle)
2. Strictly Ballroom (Self-mockery is definitely a part of the national character)
3. Sydney--A story of a city (Made for TV, but a nice historical tour of the city--convicts!!)
4. Muriel's Wedding (More self-mockery, bits with Sydney in the background)
5. Mad Max (Not sure why such a cult favorite, but more about the loneliness, convicts, at least metaphorically)

Next up: Cosi, Priscilla, and Lantana....
