Stand (2023)
Showtime and NBA sell out again on Mahmoud Abdul Rauf
I watched this amazing doco the day it came out in Australia, (which it didn't by the way, i switched PVN's etc to watch, no shame here) I followed Chris Jackson and Mahmoud throughout his career and still do to this day. He is an amazing sportsman but an even better man. This doco well directed by Joslyn Rose Lyons hit all the targets for a good doco or film, drama, humour, and tragedy, Mahmoud has been through his fair share of it. Would recommend it to any sports fan or anyone really, frustrating thing is, Showtime has taken it down for no apparent reason. NBA. Blackballed him again. Gutless.
The Combination: Redemption (2019)
George and David keep reflecting Oz back at us
Returning years after the original incendiary Combination, George Basha has fashioned another hard hitting slice of Urban warfare. Warring factions from all walks of life do battle in this well written, directed and performed flick. It stands out as a film that tells how life really is in Sydney or any city or town in Australia, not a glorified version with kangaroos bouncing down the street or Hogan larrikin isms that set our culture back 30 years. Basha and Field are a dynamite pairing who should be given as much money as they want to make more films like this. Top notch.
