    A great booze-smelling sticky noir on the Gold Coast. Like all great noir the plot is a muddy mess. Going in not understanding the politics of that time and place worried me but have no fear police and political corruption familiar to me in the US in 2025 is not much different than this ones down under in the 1980s. Bananas and a colorful feast for the eyes.
