And, even more significantly, as it predates the contrived, heavy handed and deliberately boorish “Ocker” nonsense that came into vogue a bit later, it remains an excellent example of genuine, laid back Aussie humor at its best.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHowever, looking at it again, all these years later, it now provides a stark reminder of just how much things have changed. Sadly, Australia is no longer quite the same sun drenched “workers paradise” where the average punter could afford a Sydney Harbourside home on little more than a basic wage and buy a crayfish (lobster) for a couple of dollars on a Saturday night. It really was one big endless summer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAn icon of Aussie culture!\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"display-name-date\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"review-date\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eThey’re a Weird Mob. Recently restored and remastered (within a limited budget) for DVD release, this movie was a revelation in Aussie ways and customs, a near-to-totally honest portrayal of what it was like for immigrants arriving here back in the last half of the 20th Century (yes, it seems a long time ago).\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"content\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"text show-more__control\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe house that Nino built occupied a block in Greenacre, NSW, less than half a mile from where I was living at the time. I must have driven by it thousands of times. Previous prints screened on TV have been abysmal with washed out colour and scratchy images and sound. To see this near-as pristine print (for the most part) was an eye-opener and the scenes of Greenacre, Bankstown and other Sydney locations brought memories flooding back.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe cast of fine supporting actors makes the film worth watching, while the lead actor is simply perfect. One can’t imagine anyone else in the part. The film flags towards the end but generally, it’s great viewing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"FilmClassicsonDVD","offers":[{"title":"DOWNLOAD","offer_id":51499594580255,"sku":"wemob-2","price":10.94,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"DVD","offer_id":51499594613023,"sku":"wemob-1","price":12.94,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0944\/0788\/5087\/files\/They-re-a-Weird-Mob-rareandcollectibledvds-20.jpg?v=1767340042","url":"https:\/\/filmclassicsondvd.com\/products\/they-re-a-weird-mob","provider":"FilmClassicsonDVD","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
