A word from the Antipodes........we have a well known list of directors, beginning with Peter Weir, (Picnic at Hanging Rock) Fred Schepisi, too many to list, and last but not least, N Zer, Jane Campion,(The Piano, Angel at my Table, ) her compatriot Peter Jackson (Lord of the Rings), then there are Oscar nominees, Whale Rider, the youngest ever female actress nominated, The Navigators, ..............Heavenly Creatures,................ the list goes on and on and I have missed out many as it's 4 a m and I'm too tired to think of more. Are we ignored 'cos we're so far away?
