Movie Reviews of He Died with a Felafel in His Hand
Movie Review: Great Australian comedy
Summary: 5 Stars
If you've ever share-flatted you'll be in stitches with this one. It's an excellent adaptation of John Birmingham's novel (of the same name). Rendering the variety and intensity of the share-flatting experience in excruciating detail. From the rickety, run-down house full of odd characters - an albino moon-tanner, a mysterious and beautiful eastern-bloc woman, a bikey-type with neo-nazi leanings and a penchant for brothels, a young japanese girl with very little english... and the main character - a struggling writer who is desperate to write a great novel on his underwood typewriter... but doesn't know how to start. From there you pass through the succession of share-houses and the characters they meet, seeing a cross-section of Australian culture, but with characters that anyone can recognise.
The story has been adapted brilliantly - giving the full flavour of the original book, while tying it together with a fabulous storyline.
Well worth a watch, no matter where you hang your hat.
