It’s movie night tonight in the Muir Household and it is always a tough decision about what to watch.  We managed to score tickets the other day to a preview screening of The Kingsmen, so probably won’t be going out tonight to the movies (original plan was saturday night movies to see American Sniper).  But now it comes down to what to watch on the couch.  There are plenty of movies we could watch, a romantic comedy to keep the wife happy (ugh, pass) or something classic.  At one point we were going through all the Star Wars movies, but now we are finished.

But now it comes down to should I introduce Heidi to some quintessential Australian movies?  The kind of movies that every Australian knows about.  My two favourite movies from Aus would have to be The Dish or The Castle, both pretty good but very different to each other.  The Castle is clearly the Comedy about the Australia of the 90s, and the “typical” australian.  However the Dish shows a good serious look at Australian life in the country in the 60s.  So many choices!

What should I show to her?  I do think it is something I need to introduce her to, a little bit of Australia at home here in the USA.  I already have her eating Vegemite, the least I can do is slowly slowly convert her 😉
