Sad news...

Sarah Watt has died. One of the best Australian film-makers. I love Australian movies and Look Both Ways is one of my favourites.

I bought the book she co-authored with her husband, actor William McInnes, Worse Things Happen at Sea, a few weeks ago. You can listen to him reading an extract from it here. I've read it once and will review it in here sometime when I've read it a second time. It's fantastic.

How sad. i love anything by William McInnes. I saw an at home with him a couple of years ago. His wife wasn't very old, either.

Yes, I'm a bit of a William fan too :) Have read all his books and I met him at a book reading/signing he did in Redcliffe just before we moved here. I had Liam with me (he was just a baby then) and I seem to remember there were lots of older ladies there that day too...

That's so sad. I love William McInnes too. Fantastic Aussie actor. May he know God's comfort in his grief.

I'm a William fan too. Haven't seen Look Both Ways, but maybe I should put it on my "to see next time I'm in Australia" movie list.
