Australian film Last Dance has begun production in Melbourne.
Directed by David Pulbrook, principle photography began on Monday in and around St Kilda, Melbourne.
The film is Pulbrook’s debut feature film. Pulbrook has had a long history as an editor, beginning his career in the 60s working on episodes of Homicide and Division 4.

Most recently he edited Simon Wincer’s The Cup.
The film stars Julia Blake (Innocence, Bed of Roses), Firass Dirani (Killer Elite, Underbelly) and Alan Hopgood.
Pulbrook said of his film: “Last Dance digs beneath the stereotypes to reveal the basic humanity of the two principle protagonists and transcends the tragedy of their pasts and speaks of optimism, possibilities and tolerance. We were careful not to...

I find rich, rich irony in Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps’s premiere at Cannes. First off, director Oliver Stone is in didactic mode throughout the film (at times it feels like a PowerPoint presentation) and in the film, and in his comments afterward, excoriates capitalism and greed, during a festival where everyone is trying to figure out how to secure financing to make movies and the main participants of the film are staying in swanky hotels and driving around in limos.
Stone appears to be trying to make amends for creating Gordon Gecko, an iconic Wall Street hero, since it was someone whose motives and mind-set the writer/director so clearly loathed. He’s now made Godzilla nice and turned Gecko (who has been played by Michael Douglas both times) from a confirmed capitalist into a redeemed reflecter, exemplified by the twist on the iconic “Greed is good” line...
