Overview
Hearing someone talk completely candidly without a speck of pretence is always treat, even more so if they are speaking about their life as pioneer of Aboriginal theatre, drug addict, cat burglar, regular jailbird, fine sartorialist, actor, musician and homosexual blackfella.
Filmmaker Amiel Courtin-Wilson followed Jack Charles with a camera through his ups and downs for over seven years, showing him to be one of the most optimistic, charismatic, hilarious and honest criminals ever captured on film.
Bastardy is without a doubt one of the most memorable and moving documentaries of recent years, and this week our friends at Pigeonground Records and Clothing are launching the DVD and 7 inch vinyl, with a live musical set from Jack himself! They are also promising free drinks and food, something many are partial to, so we suggest arriving early to get a spot.
