Thursday Pictures – DINGO

Thursday 5 May 2022 – 7.30pm @ Killara Centre, Camperdown

On a hot day in outback Western Australia in 1969, legendary American jazz trumpeter Billy Cross (Miles Davis) performs an impromptu concert on the tarmac after his plane makes an unscheduled stop. Among the stunned audience is John Anderson (Daniel Scott), aged nine, who decides on the spot to become a trumpet player. Twenty years later, John (Colin Friels) is making a meagre living tracking dingoes and playing trumpet in a local band. He still dreams of joining Billy on trumpet and makes a pilgrimage to meet his idol.

This is an Australian classic from 1991 and features jazz great Miles Davis in his only acting appearance.

A highlight for fans of jazz and those who believe that dreams can come true, Dingo screens at 7.30pm on Thursday 5 May 2022 in the Killara Centre, Camperdown. Rated PG 1hr 49min.

$10 entry for guests or $30 for a 3 x film membership subscription. The entry fee includes supper and refreshments after the screening.

Screenings will follow the current Victorian State Government Covid-19 regulations. NOTE: Out of respect for your own health and the health of other members, if you are unwell, please do not attend.
