Highly acclaimed as the best Australian film for 1992 by critics and audiences alike, "Strictly Ballroom" is definitely a lot of fun.
Baz Luhrmann's satire is filmed very much tongue-in-cheek, as it tells the tale of young 'Scott Hastings', a dancer who holds much promise, yet seems destined to throw it all away because he wants to dance his way. As a send-up of ballroom dancing, the film is quite funny, and Australian audiences will appreciate this brand of humour.
The whole cast seem to enjoy themselves immensely, as I'm sure cinema goers will continue to do, in a film whose freshness and originality will take it far.
