This year's AACTA Award for Best Film will be a contest between Baz Luhrmann’s 'Elvis', George Miller’s 'Three Thousand Years of Longing', Leah Purcell’s 'The Drover's Wife The Legend of Molly Johnson', Thomas M. Wright's 'The Stranger', Western Sydney anthology feature 'Here Out West', and Hannah Barlow and Kane Senes' horror 'Sissy'.
A host of Aussie actors have joined the main cast of Baz Luhrmann's Elvis Presley biopic, including Richard Roxburgh, Helen Thomson, David Wenham, and Dacre Montgomery.
Baz Luhrmann's 'Elvis' attracted the kind of showstopping attention the King was known for following its premiere at this year's Cannes Film Festival.
Leah Purcell's 'The Drover's Wife The Legend of Molly Johnson' leads the nominees for the Australian Film Critics Association (AFCA) Awards, which will be held later this year.
Luhrmann's Elvis explores the life and music of Elvis Presley (Austin Butler), seen through the prism of his complicated relationship with his enigmatic manager, Colonel Tom Parker (Tom Hanks).
As expected, Cate Blanchett secured her fourth Golden Globe for her performance as the titular character in Todd Field’s 'Tár' on Wednesday.
After dominating the AACTA Industry Awards on Monday, Baz Luhrmann's 'Elvis' continued its sweep at the main ceremony, winning another four awards, including Best Film and Best Direction.
