Clip description
Peg Sylvester (Hazel Phillips) and her daughter Kim (Bronwyn Barber) visit Peg’s nephew, Paul Lawrence (Sean McEuan). Paul asks Kim’s boyfriend Tony Brown (Rod Mullinar) for help on a design project. Tony agrees, as long as Paul’s friend, Leigh (Ann Aczel), moves in with them.
Curator’s notes
Leigh’s remark about being ‘Paul’s groupie’, and her response when Tony suggests all three of them shack up together, were very racy elements for an Australian film of this era. When the R (Restricted) film classification certificate was introduced in 1971, Australian films were quick to capitalise on much more relaxed guidelines on sex and nudity.
