Or avocados? During the heady years of tax incentives and 10BA it didn't much matter to Australian investors where they put their surplus funds. For the Australian film industry, booming after the creative revival of the 1970s, the next decade became one of confusion and controversy. In THE AVOCADO PLANTATION, David Stratton gives us a comprehensive look at the making of 270 film features between 1980 and 1990. He discusses the big name attractions - GALLIPOLI, THE MAN FROM SNOWY RIVER, MAD MAX 2, CROCODILE DUNDEE, MAN OF FLOWERS, SWEETIE - and a host of lesser known films. Adventure films, horror films, love stories, comedies, they're all here: the smash hits, the turkets and the quality movies appreciated by discerning audiences. Stratton tells the behind-the-scenes stories of how the films were made - or in some casxes, un-made. He talks with directors such as Peter Weir, George Miller and Paul Cox, as well as producers, writers, actors, and crew members. Their reflections and revelations form a major part of THE AVOCADO PLANTATION." [Taken from book jacket]Notes: Includes indexISBN: 0732902509LON: 7520974Donation: Simon WincerID2: 255

Fred Schepisi : interviews / edited by Tom Ryan Jackson: University Press of Mississippi, c2017.
Call No: 81SCH FREAuthor: Ryan, Tom (ed.) Source: USPlace: JacksonPublisher: University Press of MississippiPubDate: c2017PhysDes: xxxvi, 200 pages : illustrations ; 24 cmSeries: Conversations with filmmakers seriesSubject: FILM ; AUSTRALIA ; SCHEPISI, FRED ; DEVIL'S PLAYGROUND (AT, Fred Schepisi, 1976) ; BARBAROSA (US, Fred Schepisi, 1982) ; EVIL ANGELS (AT, Fred Schepisi, 1988) ; LAST ORDERS (UK, Fred Schepisi, 2001) ; IT RUNS IN THE FAMILY (US, Fred Schepisi, 2003) Summary: In the New Yorker, Stephen Schiff has described Fred Schepisi (b. 1939) as "probably the least-known great director working in the mainstream American cinema--a master storyteller with a serenely muscular style that can make more flamboyant moviemakers look coarse and overweening." Schepisi's launch in Australia during the country's film renaissance of the 1970s and his ongoing international work have rightfully earned him a reputation as an actors' director. But he has also become a skillful stylist, forging his own way as he works alongside a talented team of collaborators.
This volume includes twenty interviews with Schepisi and two with longtime collaborators, cinematographer Ian Baker and composer Paul Grabowsky. The interviews trace the filmmaker's career from his beginnings in advertising, through his two early Australian features--The Devil's Playground and The Chant of Jimmie Blacksmith--to his subsequent work in the United States and beyond on films as various as Plenty, Roxanne, A Cry in the Dark, The Russia House, Six Degrees of Separation, Empire Falls, Last Orders, and Eye of the Storm. Schepisi's films are diverse thematically and visually. In what is effectively a master class on film direction, Schepisi discusses his creative choices and his work with actors and collaborators behind the scenes. In the process, he provides a goldmine of insights into his films, his filmmaking style, and what makes him tick as an artist." -- BOOK BACK COVERNotes: Formerly CIP; Includes bibliographical references and index; Includes filmography; Also published electronicallyISBN: 9781496811479Contents: -- foreword by Gillian Armstrong -- introduction -- chronology -- filmology -- Fred Schepisi / Sue Mathews (1984) -- Devil's playground: an interview with Fred Schepisi / Brian McFarlane ( 2015) -- Playboy interview: Fred Schepisi / Rennie Ellis (1982) -- Fred Schepisi: the Australian director talks about his new controversial film, Barbarosa / Michael Sragow (1982) -- Altered states in The great white north / James Verniere (1983) -- Fred Schepisi: taking Hollywood by drizzle / David Edelstein (1984) -- Man of plenty / Brent Lewis (1985) -- Man of plenty / David Stratton (1986) -- Dialogue on film: Fred Schepisi / American film (1987) -- The making of Evil angels: director Fred Schepisi talks about private moments, public realities and dingoes / Philippa Hawker (1988) -- The man Meryl Streep trusts / Rennie Ellis (1989) -- Fred Schepisi / Peter Malone (1998) -- Fred Schepisi: pushing the boundaries / Scott Murray (1990) -- A cinematic gallant / Stephen Schiff (1993) -- Last orders: an interview with Fred Schepisi / Cynthia Fuchs ( 2001) -- Fred Schepisi on last orders / Tom Ryan (2001) -- Fred Schepisi on It runs in the family / Tom Ryan (2003) -- Shooting dialogue as action: an interview with Fred Schepisi / Fincina Hopgood ( 2011) -- All against one and one against all: Fred Schepisi's outsiders / Dan Callahan (2014) -- Fred Schepisi on making movies, "what I'm most interested in 'always" is the humanity of the piece" / Tom Ryan ( 2015) -- appendicies -- planning and problem solving : an interview with Ian Baker / Tom Ryan (2016) -- key notes: an interview with Paul Grabowsky / Tom Ryan (2016) -- additional resources -- index --
