Having A Crack At Jazzing Up Bowls: Hunter Cordaiy Speaks to Paul Moloney, Director of 'Crackerjack'

'"Crackerjack" is an Australian feature which looks and sounds like the best of renaissance films from the 1970s. It has no spectacular special effects, was made largely on location, and is a comedy based on the traditional values of an Australia fast disappearing under the relentless pressure of a vigorous (and to some, uncaring) capitalism. And this is achieved from a talented ensemble cast who tell stories . . . and play bowls.' Hunter Cordaiy talks to 'Crackerjack' director Paul Moloney about money versus tradition, valuing the elderly, script development and test screenings, and achieving Crackerjack's visual comedy.
