The Picture Show Man

synopsis


A warm and witty comedy set in the 20s, The Picture Show Man chronicles the adventures of Maurice Pym (John Meillon), a flamboyant showman traveling the Aussie outback unreeling silent films. Braving much hardship and heartbreak along the way, Pym soon clashes with rival showman Palmer - a loud-mouthed, super-cool, ever-smiling American (Rod Taylor).

Great Australian Film

23 June 2013
member rating

A wonderful, quintessential Australian film from 1977 about wandering picture show exhibitors who toured country NSW in the 1920s. The cast is a who's who of Australian film including John Mellion, John Ewart, Howard Hopkins, Judy Morris, Jenie Drynan and others. A great "period piece".
