I didn't mean to make it sound like it was an Aussie film, sorry. Sometimes we have strange associations that lead us in unlikely and seemingly illogical directions... hence this recollection.
I first saw it on a cable channel years ago, and loved it, so I bought the tape. You are right, it should really be issued on a DVD, and good one, at that, as it is a spellbinding film.

I got the VHS from Amazon, but I'd love to have this on DVD. Fine oddball film. The director studied poetry & philosophy at Harvard.
I relate to cats. So I loved it even more - gorgeous leopard, gorgeous naked Brit actor...what's not to like??? ;-)

  I am sure you already know it, but for those unfamiliar, this is not your typical "how the movie was made" story, and a worthy reading.
  BTW... speaking of gorgeous actors, naked and close... I would be interested in your reaction to Beau Travail - do you think that was a film made by a woman for women, or do you think it speaks a much more universal language that transcends the sexes? I am asking because I love the film without paying much attention to the sexual connotations, although I do feel and see them, and wonder if I am truly missing something there.
  To me that film is like a sister to Passion.
