I went out and bought it last night - was a bit hard to find. I watched the movie and then watched all the other material on the DVD. The additional material mentioned that the director, Roger Donaldson, first film was a documentary about Burt Munro made in the late 60s. I want to get a hold of that one! Sounds like it was the equivalent of "On any Sunday" for those in Australia and NZ at the time.
Roger Donaldson later went on to do 15 or so box office films, first notable one being "bounty".
