Made by Film Australia 1979. Directed by Dean Semler. A shearer, his wife and six children leave their farmhouse at daybreak for the week's big event - a Saturday visit to the nearest town, Lake Cargelligo, New South Wales. There's a trip to the barber, icecream for the kids, the weekly football match and a beer at the pub. Come nightfall, it's either a movie or the local dance. This beautifully shot film from Academy Award winner Dean Semler captures all the atmosphere of a weekly ritual repeated in country towns right across Australia.

This film is a real piece of history, it's Australia as Australians love to both remember and want it to be for the future, we no longer buy veggies from the back of a ute, or indeed load 6 kids in the back of the ute to come to town once a week. Secretly everyone wants to live in this tine I think :)

No traffic that posed a threat back then, we sat in the back having a ball waving at the car drivers around us and getting the best view of the streets & roads as we went along. Never to be repeated!. We were so lucky.

In response to where are they now? I live in LC and can tell you many are still here, many have passed away, unfortunately like many country towns most of the shops shown have shut down, cinema, both cafés, the afl teams gave now combined to 1, and the dirt road in the beginning is now tar. The barber still gives the occasional hair cut, the pub is still in the same family, dances at the hall no longer happen either,

Hi, I'm actually his mum, using his account (or other way round and he's changed the name lol ) personally we've been in town 17 yrs and 17 when we moved here but been in the area. Curiously the town population hadn't really changed drAmatically, I loved seeing it, king of bitter sweet in spose, the waitress in the cafe that dips the steak in fat before cooking it is my hubby's aunt, the man dancing with the main characters' wife was our neighbour of 17 yrs before passing away recently, (believe

What happened to the world you mean. We’ve been duped. It took the corporations a while but they won in the end. Innocence, dead. They own us, the government facilitates it, and we enforce it by policing each other. Political correctness has gone berserk. We like to see ourselves as characters like Hoges in a mojo ad for qantas or something but really the late 70s and 80s were the end of that Australia. We sneer at such simple joys these days like we’re so damn enlightened. We’re enslaved more like it. Bunch of uptight, over competitive., pseudo middle class snot nosed wankers now. Tell me I’m wrong, you knob heads know I’m not. Completely fucked if you ask me.

Neat film. There are elements of this local life that still exists in the Far West of NSW; it is what makes it special to many that have made life long commitments to live in the various towns. I have never lived in the Far West, but have visited and the lifestyle and the culture make it great.

I went to Broken Hill 3 years ago to St Patty's Cup Day. Their big horse race. And to Silverton Pub nearby. I felt like I was in real Australia. Little similar to this film. Simple life and nice ppl. And happy.

i remember in 1979 or 80 we were shearing at Togamain station, when a heap of us went into Darlington Point as there was dance on, by the end of the night we had been run out of town. Seems the local lads don't like strangers dancing with their girls. some of the silly buggers in the car wanted to go back for another go, NOT a good idea! But great times were had i remember coming home poorer than when i left - that included my wages, all gone but had a ball, great bunch of blokes back then, work hard party harder.

The good old days. I was in grade 6 in WA when this was made. Back then a family could afforward a day out, you could ride in the back of the ute and I often did and dad could have a few drinks and drive as long as you weren't to full. Kids even said thank you. It was a good era. Feel a bit sad. Miss it

20 cents would get a serve of fish n chips, wrapped in newspaper in 1973. A meat pie n cake at school lunch on day after dad’s pay day. Petrol 35 cents a gallon. But if I recall correctly overhearing mum n dad sorting the family budget for the week, pay was $45 and rent $9. A three bed brick home $9,000 and a new kingswood $2000 something. Far simpler times.BTW, a new house had no floor coverings, curtains, blinds etc, only a cooker, small HWS and a small path out to the Hills hoist. No carport, driveway, garden; all that one did themselves over time.
