Book Week (2018)

Book Week: Directed by Heath Davis. With Alan Dukes, Melanie Clarry, Rose Riley, Benjamin Scales. A jaded high school English teacher is forced to re-evaluate his life when his novel is passed over for one of his students.

“This film got nominated at the Australian Academy, really? WHY? There are some good moments and its shot very well. But the main actor Alan Dukes gets into situations with women which anyone will tell you is highly unlikely with this type of character. I found it hard to sit through, it wasnu0026#39;t compelling or engaging at all. I loved the actress playing the police officer, so credit to her. Airlee Dodds by far was the most interesting character and sheu0026#39;s got a bright future. There is nothing special here, no standout. But I also liked the African guy too. Sorry but dont waste your time. Go and see a real Aussie film like Lion or 1%”
