I’ve been thinking of possible titles for the great Australian movie script that I know I will write soon. The first idea is… “Petersham”. It will be similar to “Australia” ( That Movie) by Baz Luhrman but instead of droving scenes that apparently cover some 30,000 km it will have sweeping panoramic footage that goes from Borsellino Bros fruit market all 400 metres to the Oxford Tavern (Jelly Wrestling Wednesday Nights).
My problem will be in the casting. Where can I find an Australian actress who has had so much botox that she is as expressive as an Easter Island statue?
Or how about this? “Perth New Years Eve” It will be similar to “Australia” by Baz Luhrman but instead of droving scenes that apparently cover some 30,000 km it will have a bunch of like-minded musicians who play the gig at Burswood, such as Daryl Braithwaite and his pedigreed band, Brian and the Pseudo boys. We have a good night. Wilbur Wilde and I (he is the MC) are trying to find a single malt whiskey quite early in the morning of the new year but it is not to be. A good time is had by all!!
Or how about this? “2009, The Year” It will be similar to “Australia” by Baz Luhrman but instead of droving scenes that apparently cover some 30,000 km it will be filled with gigs by the Mentals where we meet lots of nice people and still have people conned into thinking that we know what we’re doing.
I hope whoever reads this has a great ’09 and I can assure you that my spelling is as bad as it ever wash.
