Is It Avaliable To Rent Or Buy?


I'm interested in renting or buying this film.
Does anyone know where I could get my hands on a copy?
I live in Australia to.

reply

I think it's coming on tv, sbs, in February.

reply

i just saw the screening on sbs, it was awesome, really funny and the cast was great
would be interested to know when or if it's coming out on dvd

reply

If anyone finds out where to buy this film on DVD, pls drop me a PM

reply

ooh, i'd like to know as well. :)

reply

I don't think it will be on DVD. It's only one hour. Who's hear of a DVD with just one hour of programming on it.

reply

There are plenty of DVD's available with short programs on them so i'm sure you would be able to get "Stranded" try SBS online or I think "Dymocks" bookshops sell ABC and SBS DVD's and merchandise.

reply

I agree loads of stuff shorter than an hour come onto DVD (e.g. Harvie Krumpet), sometimes coupled with another film or with a lot of extras.

I'm not sure about this one - it would take a while anyway.

I am also keeping an eye out as I missed it on television (stupid me). I'm also hoping it will show again...

reply

Yea.
I think I might Call SBS and see if I can Get my hands on a copy.

reply

Please let me know how it goes. Thanks.

reply

I would like to buy this on dvd too as i had not watched it on tv.

reply

I loved this movie too, short as it was - but it has been nominated for a award in the AFI Awards for Best Short Form.

I keep checking SBS shop and dymocks and also JB Hi Fi, but nothing yet. I also emailed the production group that funded stranded, they said they would email me back with the release date.

Personally, I'm hoping it shows again on regular tv before hand.

reply

Your wish has come true. Stranded will be on SBS at 10.00pm on 23/8/. Very unusual as it was only on a few months back.

reply

According to CirceFilms, SBS has stranded exclusively for two years. They should show it regularly.

Anyone else going to watch it tonight?

reply

watched it tonight, cliche stuff but i want to see it again!

reply

For most, suburban life IS a bit of a cliche. The performances were excellent and the direction outstanding. Like you, I want to see it again and... you get a little more with each viewing.

reply

Yep. I only caught the last 10 mins last time it was on.
SO I just watched it then on SBS.

So damn good. 50mins ws just enough to really convey the story.
Everything about it was so spot on. Even the music was top stuff.

Was very authentically Australian as well.
Just the way everyone interacted & the language used.
Hope the director gets to make a feature film.

Highly reccomended.

reply

Totally agree.
Watched it last night and can't wait to see it again.

reply

i live in az, where can i get it?

reply

reply

reply

reply

i checked out ronin, and when I searched for stranded, they didn't have any pages about it.

But if you managed to find something about it, well done

reply

Sorry. It isn't not on their site yet, but I called them and they confirmed they are working on it and that it should be ready in a few weeks.

reply

Its on the site now:

yay!!!

reply

thanks

reply

but would you pay 50 bucks for it????????

reply

id pay at most $35 for it. Its a short movie but its good.

does it have special features in it? like making of, interviews?

reply

Has anybody bought it yet?

Is it really AU$50? It can't be surely.

reply

I just looked at Ronin Films pricing structure.
I think its a little ridiculous, paying $745.00 for 'Stranded'. Thats how much State Libarys have to pay to buy it.

Does anybody else agree?
You can take a look at the prices here:

reply

$50 is far too much, what are they thinking? That really is a lot of money. Perhaps some libraries will get it?

reply

Special features.. lol
