Offers an important insight into the formative moments of transnational film culture in Australia Provides vibrant textual studies of under-evaluated Australian international pictures Develops an understanding of international film production in the years following WWII and before the Australian film revival of the 1970s Corrects the perception that there was no significant feature film production in Australia after the 1930s and before the revival Offers background and important precedents for the more recent practices of global co-productions and 'Hollywood Down-under' Australian International Pictures examines the concept and definition of Australian film in relation to a range of local, international and global practices and trends that blur neat categorisations of national cinema. Although international co-production is particularly acute in the present day, this book examines the porous nature of Australian International filmmaking, and the intriguing transnational and cross-cultural formations created by globally targeted but locally focussed films made in Australia in the period 1946 75.
