  • ""Vicki-Ann and Dimity Hurley, sisters in their 20s, live in a small house in a dusty, seemingly underpopulated town of Sunray (proclaimed as a Tidy Town runner-up). ... Vicki-Ann ... runs a Unisex hair salon called Hairport, reads cheap romantic fiction and wears various shades of pink. The only man she was ever seriously involved with had an accident with a chain saw (his fate unknown), and now she's lonely and bored. So is her kid sister, 20-year-old Dimity ..., though she hasn't yet been involved with a man. She spends her days aimlessly riding around the dusty streets on her bicycle, and sharing sandwiches for lunch (in the decrepit Rotary Park) with Vicki-Ann; in the evening, she works as a waitress at the town's Chinese restaurant. And so life goes on until Ken Sherry ... drives into town to take over the local one-man radio station (3SR, 'Sounds of Sunray'). Sherry is what passes for a celebrity in these parts; he used to have a radio program in Brisbane, and even had a (presumably unsuccessful) television gig. A child of the hippie era now well into middle age, Sherry is a jaded hedonist who's dropped out to escape the hustle and bustle, as he puts it; more likely, this is the only job he could get in radio. He moves in next door to the Hurleys, and begins his daily broadcasts of tinpot philosophizing and old songs (Dionne Warwick, Glen Campbell) played on scratchy vinyl (3SR hasn't caught up with CDs yet). The film gently and sweetly depicts the tremendous impact Sherry has on the sisters. Inevitably, he seduces both, while making it clear he's not interested in long-term relationships. ... Characters ... include ... also the volatile Albert Lee ..., owner of the Chinese restaurant (which is apparently the only eatery in town). ... [who] is a nudist when off duty, and puzzles over Sherry's queries about the freshness of prawns, which he never orders. Then there's Dimity's obsession with fish, which is taken to its extreme when she imagines Sherry has gills"--Variety review by David Stratton, May 20, 1996."@en
