Malcolm
Malcolm could easily come across as a lonely and reclusive misfit. People who would choose to judge him, could mistake him for some kind of an idiot, but let's have it right, Malcolm is actually a master of all things technical and quite the professor when it comes to engineering and gadgets. Living alone in inner Melbourne after the death of his mother, he loses his dream job after he takes a joy ride in his own mini tram (worthy of anything Q could create for Mr. Bond).
To help with the cash situation, Malcolm advertises for a lodger. Fresh from a stay at Her Majesty's big house arrives Frank, swiftly followed by his girlfriend Judith. When Frank decides it is time to go robbing and stealing, he can think of no better designer for a getaway car than Malcolm.
The winner of 8 AFI (Australian Film Institute) including Best Film , this new release is crammed with a bunch of extras including behind the scenes footage, Malcolm is an utter delight that inFilm Australia called "an endearing suburban adventure".

Very funny budget film
A real gem this. The plot is somewhat unreal but it's charming and engaging throughout. Really enjoyed it.

My Namesake, Malcolm
Quite a funny film with lots of unexpected quirks and twists. It makes me wonder if it was a bit autobiographical?
It's not a long film and it&#... read more » - 1049854
