Aussie movies part 2

A few more Aussie movies that I enjoy watching from time to time.

Crackerjack:
This movie is about a guy who is a "member" of a lawn bowls club so that he can get car parking permits for an inner city club which he then sells on to other people. The bowling club he joins becomes desperate for people to play as number have dropped and he is given an option to either turn up and bowl or lose his membership. Pretty funny movie with Mick Molloy in the starring role, supported by Sam Johnson. There is a bunch of cameos anhd supporting cast from some legendary Aussie actors including Bill Hunter and Frank Wilson.
Malcolm:
I love this film. Its about a simple minded tram driver who also happens to be a mechanical genius. He makes a whole bunch of gadgets. I don't want to give this movie away if you haven't seen it. Just go out and get it! If you have seen it, watch it again :).
He Died With A Felafel In His Hand:
This movie is witty, funny and strange. It follows a guy who lives in a bunch of different rental houses up and down the eastern coast of Australia. His friends from his travels always seem to end up showing up at the wrong time.

A side note. I watched both finals on the weekend. The hawks v pies game was pretty amazing, but I think the wrong team won that game. Very hard at it, sitting on the edge of your seat type of stuff. The Geelong game just prooved how awesome they still are and that last year was just a small hump. I look forward to the Grand Final should be a cracker.
