'Looking at the history of mainstream cinema in Australia, one can safely say that representations of Aborigines in feature films have been, to say the least, insubstantial...I wish, however, to call into question the singularity of this critical approach and suggest that there are alternative ways of reading Aboriginalities in the Australian cinema which do not rely solely on this top-down model of analysis, that is, the dominant culture representing marginal cultures.'
