Praise for Melbourne on Film

‘A brilliant array – of lives, of films, of Melbournes. Each essay contains a whole world – and then you get to start the next. For the newcomer, an exciting introduction; for the Melburnian, a welcome re-immersion; for both, revelations.’ —Sean Kelly

‘All the essays share an interest in how these films depict Melbourne, as Tsiolkas describes it, at street level and close-up. —Readings ‘Non-fiction book of the month’
