DAILY REVIEW: Australian cinema is still big, its the audience that got small. The best Australian films of the year so far weren’t fortunate. The Rover seemed to have everything going for it: a hot director (David Michôd), a big budget ($12 million), an exotic setting (Australian dessert in an anarchic future) and huge celebrity draw power (Twilight alumni Robert Pattinson). Reviews were generally positive but audiences stayed away. The film took a disastrous $344,000 in its first opening fortnight. And yet, with so many quality Australian films and so little support from punters, it is hard not to view the failures of the Australian film industry as partly the failure of viewers to appreciate the magnificent work it often produces.
