I love the machintosh computer in the minister for white affairs office!
This is an ozi classic! Thanks for the post.
-
such good performances as well

WHY ISN"T MORE TV LIKE THIS?????

@WTEGog yeah sure sucks to be a peaceful, nomadic person.
-
@datalal624 you're right, datalal624, the references to the stolen generations and the scene where the whitey mother and father were taken away in the back of the ute did cut through the hilarity of earlier scenes. And the closing shot...nice and dark.
Top work.

ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT!!!!

Thanks, Bedroom Philosopher for mentioning this in your e-zine. I remember seeing this film in the 80s. Wonderful satire.

Hang on, the aborigine wasn't 'developing' when Australia was settled, they were dieing off!. If anything, they were saved from fading into history by the white man.

@WTEGog Oh look, you're a 42 year American with a whole lot of war history vids on your channel! You probably don't know what you're talking about! But look at you talking anyways. Cute.
P.S If you're going to comment on this issue, you should probably avoid racially motivated terms like 'white man'. THANKS.

@quietthomas huh???I'm an aussie!
BTW, any race that by the late 1700's had yet to develop such basic technological advancement as a bowl was surely on borrowed time. Even the most primitive African and New Guinea tribes had done so and more. The aborigine was on borrowed time and extremely fortunate that Terra Australis wasn't settled by the French or Spanish as their fate would have been annihilation. What we have isn't perfect but it's the better of all the possible outcomes for the indig.

@WTEGog Oh, so I suppose in a desert country quite barren of sustenance - where it is best to shop around (ie be nomadic) - you'd be wanting to carry around a full set of crockery and perhaps some furniture and a blender? and call that civilized society?
Just because a culture/civilization isn't YOUR culture/civilization does not mean it isn't advanced. You're just seeing through some very unanthropological western technocratic positivist eyes. Grow up and see the other meanings to life.
