Sunday Too Far Away Sunburnt Screens

"Friday night... too tired. Saturday night... too drunk. Sunday... too far away."

Jack Thompson is Foley, the best shearer on every station for miles around. Sunday Too Far Away is Foley's story of sweat-soaked days and rum-soaked nights, of bloody two-fisted punch ups... of scab labour brought in during the shearers strike of '56 and of the poor old bastard who runs the place: the cocky (farmer) who is terrified that one slip of the shears will render his prize ram good for nothing but mint sauce. A classic of Australian cinema and the film that launched the South Australian Film Corporation, Sunday Too Far Away now appears as part of the Sunburnt Screens sub label.
