Macbeth 2006 Australian DVD NEWS



The updated Aussie take on Macbeth, which looks to be very Gangster driven set in the Melbourne underworld is hitting DVD in Holland on a 2 Disc Special Edition DVD.  The release is a upgrade on the bare bones Australian DVD which was released only a few months ago.

The film is directed by Geoffrey Rush who did Romper Stomper and stars Sam Worthington, which looks to be a straight up gangster-action film.  The film opened in Australia last year, and didnt do too hot at the box office, but did manage 5 Australian Film Institute nominations.

For anyone interested in independent film in the Orlando Area, the Peace Film Festival will be taking place from September 26th through the 30th. It features a diverse selection of independent films, which will be shown in seven locations over the five days of the festival.

The festival aims to promote world peace through its content. The films are both domestic and international and differ in subject matter, so there is generally something for everyone. Issues range from domestic issues such as border control, electioneering, and plight of American farmers, to international issues such as civil war and human development in the third world.

The festival will give participants the opportunity to meet and discuss issues with some of the filmmakers, activists, and other special guests. Guests will also have the opportunity to attend educational panels focusing on the issues behind the films. Those interested can find more information at the festival's website, www.peacefilmfest.org.
