If you do Storm Boy you have to do Blue Fin. Made at Streaky Bay but set in Pt. Lincoln featuring my ex as an extra, and my fisherman neighbour also an extra who pulls the tinny in off the beach.

Hi CG, my late brother in law (whom I think you knew)was an extra in the last jetty scene in Blue Fin.

The Crows Nest from the fishing boat in the movie is still featured in Streaky Bay as a monument.

"About Schmidt" with Jack Nicholson and Cathy Bates is on TV on GEM at 8.30 PM this coming Wednesday night (21/3/2012)
It is about his RV travels after he retires and is a hoot....my favourite scene is where he is told he is "a sad, sad man". Well worth seeing and again if you have seen it already.
I'll try to drag myself away from this forum to watch it. rocket n strop

It also has Dan Sultan as the band's front man. He's good, saw him at a few different concerts. Not to mention Missy higgins, Jessica Mauboy and Deborah Mailman.
