Pick of the Week:
Sweet Country hasn’t had the strongest marketing campaign but I want to support more Australian movies this year so I will definitely be making an effort to see it. The trailer looks interesting and the movie seems to be pretty topical for Australians, in particular with the movies release date. I have been waiting to see I, Tonya since I saw the behind the scenes footage of Margot Robbie, this movie looks fantastic. I don’t know much about the Tonya Harding story but the movie looks like a fun take on the true story.
I, Tonya is my Pick of the Week
