They had a little feature on children's movies that are inappropriate for children, and this particular movie was high on the li...

Just finished Alan Duff's Once Were Warriors , the book on which the film was based. Quite different from the film. Better in a lot of respects, but without the nice clear-cut ending of the film. Very good actually. --A Shot A, still weird thinking that before LotR came out that Once were Warriors ...

RIFF :P.

I don't think anyone was doing any nose-looking-downing. But thanks for the corrections. Rock n' roll history is a serious business.

If reform is needed within the NZ film industry it should happen gradually and through the standard legal channels, rather than as a result of gangster pressure. " Gangster pressure "? There's that pre-judgement again. ...If that's the way the producers want to play the game, it's hardly ...

I do not support corporate exploitation in any form, however I am equally not prepared to support union exploitation in the same vein, to do so is hypocritical in my view. Thanks finn.
