Local movie on television
"PAPTAIN THUNDER
BOLT," a film about the last of the N.S.W. bushrangers, will soon be seen on television screens in New York.
It trill be the first Aus tralian full-length film to be broadcast on tele vision.
"Captain Thunder bolt" is scheduled to re ceive its world premiere at Armidale (N.S.W.) next month.
Police ended the bush ranger's career of mail stick-ups at Kentucky Station, a few miles from Armidale, in the early 1870's.
New England residents later paid for a monu ment to him in the Uralla Cemetery.
How the film was made for the phenomenally low cost of £15,000 is told in an article, illus trated in full color, in A.M. for November, now on sale.
