([Dr] George Miller, 1996
Examines how movies have represented different Australian identites over the past 100 years. Includes: The Bushman, Convicts, Bushrangers, Diggers, Sheilas, Gays, The wogs, Black fellas, and Urban Subversion. Uses different short sequences from different films as examples of the identities. Would be good to use with a sheet that asks students to identify what codes and convention have been used to create these stereotypes.
Could be used to address outcome Unit 2, outcome 3 Australian media organisations, and Unit 3 Narrative, outcome 1
