The Cinema of Alan Marshall

Neil Rattigan

Research output: Contribution to journal › Article › peer-review

Abstract

Even making allowance for journalistic hyperbole, it is possible that Alan Marshall may well have agreed with reporter Don Petersen who asserted in a 1975 interview in 'The Sun' that 'Alan is now head over hells [in love] with the film makers. And they, in increasing numbers, with him.' For a while, it looked as if Marshall, 'the patriarch of Australian story tellers' in Petersen's words, was about to become a dominant influence in the fledgling Australian film industry - or at least his writings a dominant source of material for films.
