LUCKY MILES - THE MOVIE

Last year I had an unique opportunity to act in an Australian feature film - Lucky Miles! (www.luckymiles.com.au). I can add a whole list of deeds to my resume including volunteer in 3rd world country, actor in a theatre with Australian Theatre of the Deaf and Australian Young People's Theatre, international basketball player and now a somewhat noted actor in a feature film! I have a blink-or-you-will-miss me role in the film.

The movie is about a group of Iraqi, Cambodian and Indoesian boat people being stranded in the 'promised land' of Australia. They argue, fuss and fight their way into finding paradise in the middle of the Australian desert.

The movie won a host of awards in Sydney and internationally and was released by Dendy films in movies around Australia in July and will now be on DVD from 5 December 2007. The movie will have english captions - I have insisted on this being included on the DVD release when I spoke to the producers and they were good to their word! (A lot of Australian films unfortunately do not have captions. Below is a picture of me in my costume, it was filmed in winter and I was absolutely freezing!
