    Help needed! Also, a top family film.

    HELP!! I saw this movie a few times as a kid with my father, he loved it. I remember him laughing out loud and remember some of the plot. Sadly I forgot all about this movie until recently when my family and I were discussing it, this is after my fathers death. However, I cannot find it anywhere, not online, not in stores, not streaming services. If anyone knows how to get a hold of this film, I would really appreciate you commenting on the feedback section like I have and advising where I can find it. It is a top film from my childhood, lots of laughs and a nice family film to watch together. Please do comment if you can HELP!

    Just like a Silhouette Desire!

    A small town ballet teacher training the local Aussie rules team to jump? Their ex-trainer is the local cop, who has had one run-in after another with her since she came to town? You just know what's gonna happen in the end, don't you?!

    But if you like 'When Harry Met Sally', or 'While You Were Sleeping', I'm willing to bet you'd enjoy this cute little film!

    Definitely a 'chick flick', but there's enough comedy thrown in to keep your other half happy, too.

    I'd definitely recommend it as a fun, undemanding time.

    (the summary is how my sister describes it - if you've ever read a romantic novel, you'll know what she means!)

    This is an underrated movie!

    I've loved this movie since I was a child. A quirky tale of single mum relocating away from the city to the bush after buying a ballet school.

    The adventures start on the road!

    Henri Szeps is your quintessential town cop wearing more than one hat.

    Mrs Marsh is just so.... Zen!

    Filmed in and around Riverstone NSW, you'll enjoy this quirky comedy too.

    Unfortunately the film was never brought to DVD which is a massive loss to future generations who'd also love this tale. I was fortunate enough to locate a VHS copy through a library many years ago and got my hands on it through an interlibrary loan :-)
