The Adventures of Barry McKenzie

Barry McKenzie (played by Barry Crocker) was originally a character created by Barry Humphries for a cartoon strip in Private Eye. Directed by the talented Oscar nominated Australian born Bruce Beresford, The Adventures of Barry McKenzie single handedly kept the Australian film Industry alive, being this was the first Australian film to earn $1 million on it's release in 1972.

bazzablue, you'd have to be wanker of the year mate. I 1st heard of the Bazza film an about '72. Its perfectly OK for back then. Everything from that era looks a bit corny now. In London from early 79 onwards, we all acted that way, and wore our Pommy Barstids T shirts with pride :-)

Fair bloody go Baz, it was 37 years ago that I 1st saw the fillum! :-) Its a piece of History mate. Complain about something else, WW2 for instance. It was only 30 years B E F O R E 'that' film :-)

bazza, what do you expect, its from the 60's, you were probably still in your old mans nut sack when this was made. Take it for what it is, a classic late 60's film with 2 australian icons in it, not to forget too, the girl in this clip is a very young Julie Covington, one of britains best singers.

Watched this the other day on BBC4 i think it was,what a waste of an hour and a half,a pile of outdated crap it was,full of outdated stereotypes of British society and of Australians too.Barry Crocker was awful playing an ignorant ocker out of his depth.

Funny film. I'd write a longer comment but need to point Percy at the porcelain, water the horses, drain the potatoes or shake hands with the Wife's best friend.
