Australian International Pictures examines the concept and definition of Australian film in relation to a range of local, international and global practices and trends that blur neat categorisations of national cinema. Although international co-production is particularly acute in the present day, this book examines the porous nature of Australian International filmmaking, and the intriguing transnational and cross-cultural formations created by globally targeted but locally focused films made in Australia in the period 1946-75. Case Studies: The Overlanders (1946) and Ealing Down Under; Kangaroo (1952); On the Beach (1959); The Sundowners (1960); The Drifting Avenger (1968); Age of Consent (1969); Color Me Dead (1970); Ned Kelly (1970); Walkabout (1971); Wake in Fright (1971); The Man from Hong Kong (1975).
