To be part of a laughing cinema audience is a joy. Watching the new movie from Dean Murphy, 'Strange Bedfellows' with a mixed group of all ages, all constantly cackling was a fantastic night out. Wonderful acting by many easily recognised Australian faces, with a generous dose of local extras, makes this a perfect movie. This film shows one of our beautiful, small country towns, as Australian living at its best. The central theme of grappling with gayness is handled superbly.
