I thought id have a crack at writting to kevin as everyone else does on here. Despite my attemps to encourge KS (aka Demigod) to Australia, and my whimpering about there being no VA dvd's of a collectors edition being available here (stupid region discs, first no muppet show now this).
I wanted to point you in the direction of something you should look out for, if you even get it of course. There was a film that i was taken to on my birthday on the 10th of last month it was a preview of a film called "he died with a falaful in his hand" (and i cant spell faluful, grr - sue me im of the f7 generation) which is based on the book of the same name by John Birminghan which has had countless plays done on it. It has Noah Taylor, who if your Australian you dont need to be told, but he played the computer geek in Tomb Raider and the manager in Almost Famous (with Jason Lee) and many more critically acclaimed films here.
Anyway, its good. Its really good. Its based on the book like the plays are but its not the book exactly as you would expect but this is my rant for films to make it big overseas, we're funny about liking things like that.
