This is not the full crowd but wanted to show you this to appreciate what the organiser did. They hire out beanbags and put down greens on the concrete and made the place warm and homely. Well done! They also gave out flags and many brought along blankets to keep warm. Yep, despite being a summer evening in Melbourne, Australia Day was pretty cold and very high percentage of shower also. Thank God the man upstairs cleared the sky. Still the wind was cold and it does get a bit windy at that spot.
After the sun has set.
Taken upstairs from inside MC2 of the crowd, the screen and traffic in the back. Because the movie was projected from the back, I can see the movie from behind also. Great!
Local residents all rugged up and enjoying the movie. I wasn't required to stay through Red Dog but did anyway because it is a very good and touching story, built on mining town as the backdrop and a very touching story of an Australia Kelpie that just loves people and helps various individuals through their lives until he found his own master, who later died from am motorcycle accident. Both in the movie and in real life Red Dog (actual name Koko) died which is very sad. Koko just died around Christmas time last year (2012) at the age of seven, short of 2 years after the release of Red Dog.
Hey, not a perfectly exposed shot of Koko/Red Dog, but it is from the screen. Hope Koko has gone to dog heaven. RIP Koko.
