    You should do "Quigley Down Under" at some point, IMO it's a fairly underrated flick that not that many people even know about, that was shot entirely in Australia.....which was the reason Alan Rickman agreed to do the movie.

    Same chill vibe, same sense of justice for the downtrodden, same witty dry humor, and a warm heart. The man literally spent as little time as possible indoors and transformed a five-acre lot into a permaculture haven, feeding the entire neighborhood, for free, for decades.

    I always like seeing Australian friends watch this movie for the first time. It's so simultaneously Australian and American. Just a cultural touchstone that created an iconic character. I'm not Australian, but as someone from the Appalachian mountains of the US who is subject to loads and loads of stereotypes by people who have never been there, I relate a lot to Dundee when he experiences all this ridicule from people in NY who know nothing about his culture but are all too ready to mock him. He has his own ways and sometimes they may be strange or not line up with the norm, but he's just being himself.

    I Love Lucy was a sitcom in the 1950s, and has been in syndication ever since. It's known to just about everyone in the U.S., but not in Australia, I guess.
    Some other Australian movies worth watching:
    Shine (1996)
    Walkabout (1971)
    Gallipoli (1981)
    Breaker Morant (1980) (an Australian production set in South Africa)
    Mad Max (1979)
    Proof (1991) (not the 2005 film with Gwyneth Paltrow)
    Muriel's Wedding (1994)
    Babe (1995) (based on Australian children's book, film produced in both Australia and the U.S.)

    She invited him in for drinks and they got to be pals.
