Romper Stomper
Streaming video - 1992
Hando (Oscar-winner, Russell Crowe) and Davey (Daniel Pollock) are the leaders of a racist youth gang who spend their nights attacking Asian immigrants in a rough section of Melbourne. On the run after losing badly in a fight against the new Vietnamese owners of their local pub, the pair hook up with teenage junkie Gabe, who suggests robbing the mansion of her rich and sexually abusive father. But the girl's presence begins to drive a wedge between the longtime friends. Winner of Best Actor in a Lead Role (Russell Crowe) and nominated for Best Film and Best Director from the **Australian Film Institute**. *"ROMPER STOMPER is a convincing depiction of subculture, and one that dares to present these figures as real, troubled individ...uals rather than stereotypes." - Matt McAllister, **Future Movies UK*** *"...[Director] Wright knows exactly how to grab audiences - by their shocked necks - and drag them mesmerised to the end." - Rob Lowing, **Sun Herald***
