While audiences have been flocking to see The Dry and Penguin Bloom in cinemas, their distributor believes there is trouble ahead.
Joel Pearlman, chief executive of Roadshow which distributes The Dry, Penguin Bloom and Rams, believes the numbers show how much Australians appreciate quality local films in cinemas, even with increasing competition from streaming services.
