Retrospective: Australian Cinema and LGBT Representation

Arts, TV & Film

Out Takes is celebrating our third year on air by looking back at some of the conversations that we have had with ground breaking Australian film makers who are dedicated to representing the lives of Australian LGBT people; film makers who have changed the shape of Australian cinema and particularly the way that LGBT Australians are represented on the screen. 

 

This retrospective includes conversations with:

 

Sue Maslin, the producer of iconic Australian films like The Dressmaker and A Japanese Story.

 

Ana Kokkinos, the ground breaking director of Head On, Blessed and Only the Brave.

 

Jill Billcock, one of the world’s most revered and respected film editors responsible for editing films like Moulin Rouge! and Elizabeth. 

 

Stephan Elliot, the director of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert and Swinging Safari.
