Sydney premiere of Australia (the movie)

| 3 Comments

Wee... one of my best perks of work are movie premieres and nothing this year has had more hype than the upcoming release of Baz Luhrmann's Australia. I was there a bit early, got a few good seats, didn't see Hugh or Nic in the flesh but I did see them via the live red carpet feed which was streamed in the cinemas. I didn't do well celebrity spotting this time as George Street was way too packed! Check out the pics below anyway:

Food! There were these thoughtful little boxes of complimentary food, which was much needed considering many of us were attending the premiere sans dinner. The roasted vegetable terrine was terrible but I loved the Brookfarm dried fruit and nut packs. They're definitely something to keep an eye out for... premium quality and simply tasty. There's even a variant with dark Belgian chocolate!

wow that's soo cool.. lucky you.. food looks quite substantial. btw was the movie good?

Wooooww thats awesommmee! Haha you don't need to do much celeb spotting since YOU are the one on the red carpet anyway hee hee ;) But, I say, that food does looks very mediocre.

Hey linda, i rated the movie as 8.5 / 10... i was teary in bits but it was mainly the combination of gorgeous scenery and beautiful music that made it such a powerful film for me... plus hugh jackman was hooooot! hehe..

Hey FFichiban, Awwwww, thanks! hahaha.... i saw the disappointed look on everyone's face when i was walking into the cinema on the red carpet though... they hesitated then put their cameras away... lol
