Not Quite Hollywood: The Wild, Untold Story of Ozploitation!
Self
Invitado en calidad de fan, el mismísimo Tarantino no duda en amenazarnos con el peor de los infiernos si no acabamos encantados con este documental consagrado al cine de exploitation australiano. Su entusiasmo, y el del resto de excepcionales invitados, al glosar los méritos de un puñado de artistas que convirtieron la Australia de los años 70 y 80 en un paraíso de cine de género, es tan elocuente como extremadamente contagioso. Not quite Hollywood radiografía a mil por hora una época repleta de desnudos frontales, explosiones, casquería, monumentales carreras de coches y sustos de primera y, sobre todo, de mucha ilusión, humor e ingenio.

Strata
Margaret
The story means to develop through an uncovering of layers - strata. As writer Krumbachova stated: "With nature as a prison, an impassable barrier ... where every action is physically and psychically limited by the environment ... people are reduced to fragments of basic instinct and intelligence." Promoted as a psychological thriller, Strata provides little tension nor any real climax. The characters are ideas - not believably real.
