This article needs an image (preferably free) related to the subject, such as a picture of the set or a film poster. A possibility for American films from before 1964 would be a screenshot from the trailer, as these are now in the public domain. Please make sure fair use is properly observed, or the image will be removed. See WP:Films MOS for image guidelines and assistance in uploading.

Fierravanti-Wells made her comments a full year prior to her (or anyone) having seen the film. I think this merits mention because it shows that her response is to the fact of a film being made about the waterside dispute, rather than the specifics of this particular film. 124.187.156.139 02:41, 8 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Propaganda film

I'm not sure this meets the definition of Propaganda film. Its hardly up there with Triumph of the Will

[edit] Response

The only thing in this section is the response from political groups, mainly the right wing (Liberal party and business groups, with a the last few sentences about unions) with no information about the response from the general public or film/tv reviewers. Furthermore the user 70.189.213.149 reverted a comment in this section without explanation, I think it was poorly worded in the past but should have been cleaned up rather than reverted.

I'm going to add a note about the ratings (from http://blogs.smh.com.au/sit/archives/2007/05/the_ratings_race_the_lowest_lo.html) and I was going to add some comments from TV reviewers. However I'm trying to avoid writing something like "The response from reviews were generally positive, at least in regards to acting performances, if not the content." However it's so subjective I'm not sure if it would be appropriate. Master z0b 06:54, 3 September 2007 (UTC)
