In their moment of triumph, there’s a dark cloud on the horizon for Australian films – Sydney Morning Herald
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.
If theres any doubt that Australian audiences want to support great stories, you only need to look at whats going on in cinemas, he says. This is not a one-off. It will happen more and more regularly.
But Pearlman believes there is a dark cloud on the horizon.
