The above deal I do find amusing. Fast tracking to the American release of Mad Max (1979) in 1980. an alternative dubbed version was screened there.
If they had thought that the American audiences would have struggled with the Australian dialogue and slang in Mas Max, boy how then would American audiences have coped with the 1930's and 1940's film's Australian dialogue and slang, particularly with the Dad And Dave titles?

This herald is interesting for two reasons. First for the live performance of Australia's Canine Movie Star and secondly for the spelling mistake in his name!

Re: Actresses Legs Quiz
Damn, Bruce beat me both of them.
I used to go to the kiddie matinee on Saturday afternoons. My parents worked until 6 and would pick me up, but the show would change to the feature at 5. One weekend the feature was Solomon and Sheba, and that bathtub scene made a lasting impression on the 11 yo me.

Bruce has auctioned fourteen posters from this film thou.gh, so he is aware of the film's existence.dedeposter said:I'll answer this evening if no one can get the answer today...I totally understand why Bruce wouldn't be able to guess it.
On saying that the film isn't that well known in the U.S.A.
