New Feature Articles

The next ten of our free film as text articles are now available for download. Three are highlighted below. To view all free feature articles for this month click here

CROCODILE DUNDEE OR THE CROC(K) OF GOLD

Whatever else there is to be said about Crocodile Dundee (Peter Faiman, 1986), there is no getting away from its sensational popularity. It made the most money at Australian box offices ever, displacing E.T. (Steven Spielberg, 1982), and overseas it broke the records for Australian films previously established by Mad Max (George Miller, 1979) and The Man from Snowy River (George Miller, 1982). In approaching the film as a text, It may be useful to start by asking why the film has been so popular, keeping in mind that film is an industry as well as an art form and that there is no point in shutting our eyes to matters of commerce in relation to an art form so capital-intensive.

VAGARIES AND VIOLENCE IN V FOR VENDETTA

V For Vendetta (James McTeigue, 2005), based on Alan Moore and David Lloyd's graphic novel of the same name, opens with a meditation on the relationship between the political and the personal. The film informs us that it will be about the power of ideas. It will be about their relationship to people. It will be about politics and the part we play in it. It will be about the moral dilemmas faced when opposing a totalitarian state.

CONFLICTING ACCOUNTS: DEAR AMERICA - LETTERS HOME FROM VIETNAM

Bill Couturie's Dear America (1987) provides a view of the American involvement in Vietnam in a way that proves both bipartisan and viscerally emotional. The film achieves a tenuous balance between the relay of facts and an impartial, unbiased investigation of the conflict, with a running commentary that is intimate, telling, and above all intensely human.

DATELINE: MOTHERS AGAINST PACO

In the slums of Buenos Aires, poor kids are used to struggling against the odds. But as Dateline video journalist David O'Shea reports, the drug paco (also known as 'poor man's cocaine'), is making life even harder for the slums' youth. The mothers of these addicts feel powerless, as it's illegal in Argentina to force an unwilling minor into rehab. So these women have joined forces, forming Mothers Against Paco, an organisation that's becoming a major power in the battle to contain the drug.

CHASING BIRDS

Australia is home to over 800 species of birds from honeyeaters to hawks, from spoonbills to cockatoos. It is also home to different species of bird lovers, some of whom take their interest to the extreme...'twitchers' is the commonly used name for such enthusiasts. Chasing Birds follows three teams - the Hunter Thickheads, the Hunter Home-Brewers and the Whacked-Out Woodswallows as they compete in an annual 'Twitchathon'. The aim is to spot as many species as possible in 24 hours. Not easy at the best of times - but especially difficult with a camera crew tagging along.

GRAND DESIGNS REVISITED: CUMBRIA

Kevin McCloud revisits an unusual building in the wild open countryside of Cumbria, one of the most beautiful regions in the UK. Helen and Phil Reddy wanted their home to make the most of the spectacular views, but they also wanted it to be ecologically friendly with no heating bills. Their solution was to build an earth-sheltered home, with most of the house built into the hillside.
