DETAILS BELOW TONIGHT! - AUSSIES, MAKE TROUBLE!!! Splodge! feels that we Aussies are losing that old larriken spirit and are not making nearly enough trouble any more, both locally as well as on the global stage. In fact, we can't recall a more compliant, obsequious and, well, generally "aspirational" bunch of wackers if we tried.
Thus, we have programmed that classic Aussie riot flick: •EUREKA STOCKADE (1949), 
The third Ealing Films production
in Australia was carefully researched by director Harry Watt, working with Rex Rienits and a small team of historians, and is distinguished by its reconstruction of the Ballarat gold-fields (on location near Singleton, NSW ), well-staged action and a strong supporting cast, notably including the great Australian radio performer REX ("WACA") DAWE - Professor Percy Pym, from the classic Australian radio comedy series YES, WHAT? In 1854, the government instigated moves designed to drive the gold-miners from Eureka Hill gold-fields. The miners showed their opposition to the move by revolting. The leader of the miners' revolt against the colonial authorities, Peter Lalor - played by CHIPS RAFFERTY - is presented as a man of doubts and principles, rather than as the charismatic rebel leader of legend.
