Box office
The box office in this print is at the front of the Public Hall
(Alexandra Hall) at Toogoolawah, a country town 85 km up the Brisbane
Valley from Mt Crosby. It has long been a favourite building of mine and
I went up recently, in the evening to see them lining up to buy their
tickets. Every second person was carrying a pillow which would make for a
very comfortable night indeed, on the elongated canvas 'deck chair
type' seats inside.
The film I have advertised on the front of the hall,
The Hunter,
is not the one that was on that night. It's a film that my daughter,
Alice, had written the screenplay for and it had just been released at
the time of making the print. I had been present at the premiere earlier
in the year at the Toronto Film Festival, so this was a further marker,
albeit fanciful, of the event. Maybe they'll show it in Toogoolawah one
day!
