Here is a fist full of good ones that haven't been mentioned yet: Muriel’s Wedding/ P.J. Hogan The Castle / Rob Sitch Chopper / Andrew Dominik Lantana / Ray Lawrence The Last Wave / Peter Weir Look Both Ways / Sarah Watt The Proposition / John Hillcoat Jindabyne / Ray Lawrence I see you with Lantana and The Proposition, and raise you with Animal Kingdom (2010). Two Hands (1999), an early Heath Ledger effort, is worth watching once, too. Until I reached adulthood, probably the only "Australian" film which I, or most other Brits, had heard of was The Overlanders 1946, although it was actually made by the English Ealing Studios. It was not very good, though no worse than the similarly themed Australia (2008) (made on a huge Hollywood budget with major stars in the lead). The earlier film was surely the source of many stereotypes.
