"Two drag-queens (Anthony/Mitzi and Adam/Felicia) and a transexual (Bernadette) contract to perform a drag show at a resort in Alice Springs, a resort town in the remote Australian desert. They head west from Sydney aboard their lavender bus, Priscilla. En route, it is discovered that the woman they've contracted with is Anthony's wife. Their bus breaks down, and is repaired by Bob, who travels on with them."

Great movie.

But weren't the Hollywood ripoffs pretty

Not quite a movie, its a mini series, but if you are into Australian stuff is a good watch.

The Dirtwater Dynasty. Its about a pommy immigrant who comes to Australia wanting to become a farmer. Anways its based on a true story and follows his life from a small farm in the middle if nowhere and grows from there. Its very good.

check out the previously mentioned "Bad Boy Bubby" if you want something a bit...um..."different".

"Razorback" is a bit of an exaggeration of the types of feral pigs you get in outback oz...less of an exaggeration of some of the people you get in outback oz!

I forgot "Gettin' Square" - very amusing movie...

This won't be to everybodies tastes but i'm actually looking forward to this release in the week or two..

It's called '4 Lions' a British comedy directed by Christopher Morris that is quite confrontational. As i said, not to everyones tastes but it looks quite funny to me.

Quote taken from a review site of the movie - "Four Lions tells the story of a group of British jihadists who push their abstract dreams of glory to breaking point."
