A real Bob Ellis movie, though co written with his wife Anne Brooksbank. Lots of dodgy sexual politics, and monologues, and regret. The one conservative character, Ken Shorter, is a terrible lover. The lefties who are arseholes like Bill Hunter and Mike Preston are great in the sack. It was cut about and edited - Ellis whined about this, as he often would.
There are some effective moments and at least it's different. The acting is pretty good. (Judy Moris is the lead). It's not very well directed.
