journal article		Australians in a vacuum: the socio-political 'stuff' n Rachel Perkins' Radiance in Studies in Australasian cinema (2008) vol.2 iss.1 p.61-71 Author: Miller, Benjamin PhysDes: Article Subject: ABORIGINAL AUSTRALIANS AND THE CINEMA; ABORIGINAL AUSTRALIANS AND TV; RADIANCE (AT, Rachel Perkins, 1998) Summary: Rachel Perkins' film adaptation of Radiance was released in 1998. With very few exceptions, reviews and criticisms of the film have been polarized. These reviews and criticisms show that Aboriginality is often classified in one of two ways: as either de-politicized and thereby not Aboriginal (assimilationist), or politicized and thereby not 'normal' (segregationist). This paper addresses various criticisms of Radiance that categorize Aboriginality in either of these ways before providing a close reading of the 'socio-political stuff' in the film. What will be seen is how Perkins' work can be seen to deny either category through her representation of various, multiple Aboriginal identities.--Abstract More info

[TV] (AT, 1966-1968); NINE NETWORK; POWER WITHOUT GLORY [TV] (AT, 1976); SEVEN NETWORK; SPECIAL BROADCASTING SERVICE; YELDHAM, PETER Summary: Television drama has been the dominant form of popular storytelling for more than sixty years, shaping the imaginations of millions of people. This book surveys the careers of the central creators of those stories for Australian television—the writers who learnt how to work in a new medium, adapting to its constraints and exploring its creative possibilities. Informed by interviews with many writers, it describes the establishment of Australian television drama production, observing the way writers grasped the creative and business opportunities that television presented. It examines the development of Australian versions of the major television genres—the sitcom, the police drama, the historical series, docudrama, and social drama— presenting a ‘canon’ of significant Australian television drama productions that deserve to be remembered. It offers an account of the emergence of work by Indigenous writers for television and it argues for the consideration of television drama alongside histories of Australian film and stage drama. -- publisher's web site ISBN: 9781925984880 More info
