I threw in Don's Party for nostalgia sake. It was one of, if not the first, movie I remember from when we first got HBO back in the day. Not sure if it belongs on a Best of Australia list but an interesting period piece (a party, set in the late 60's IIRC, ostensibly to celebrate a hoped for Labour victory in the elections).
