June 9, 2007Every Aussie's favourite movie - Liz made me watch it Valentine's Day 2005. It's like a movie-version of Neighbours!

July 17, 2007An absolute classic Aussie film. The dry humour is very Australian, and it is understandable if non-Australians don't quite understand/enjoy the humour as much as many Australians do.
