Very handsome film with great lead actors and superb cinematography SLATE WYN AND ME is a completely unknown film anywhere, even in Australia where it was made. Released for about 7 days and tossed away by the defunct local distributor of usually-crap movies, the infamous Filmways Distribution, SW&ME has three great looking lead actors who really don't have much to do except run from the law and pose in the sunlight. It is almost a James Dean sort of film made in OZ. The superb Simon Burke from DEVILS PLAYGROUND, the amazing handsome Martin Sacks later seen in the hilarious LOVE IN LIMBO and the ever breathtaking Sigrid Thornton from THE MAN FROM SNOWY RIVER are the main reason to reappraise this on-the-run drama set in rural Victoria. On a big movie screen it is exceptionally pleasing to watch, even if the story is slight trite or thin. Maybe a DVD rescue will allow a new generation to find it: BADLANDS in Oz, folks.
