Synopsis

“Mr. And Mrs. Donald Henderson request your presence at a “little get-together”. Time: 8 p.m. Date: October 25th 1969. Place: Suburban Sydney. Occasion: Election night coverage. BYO.”

When you mix a left wing teacher, a loud-mouthed sex maniac, a mild-mannered accountant, a failed philosopher, a promiscuous 19 year old nymphette, a frustrated wife, a drunken pornographer, a sexy temperamental artist and an arrogant dentist with a lot of booze… anything can happen!

Adapted by David Williamson from his own hit stage play, directed by acclaimed filmmaker Bruce Beresford (“Breaker Morant”, “The Club”), and starring the A-list of local talent (including Graham Kennedy, John Hargreaves, Graeme Blundell and Ray Barrett), “DON’S PARTY” is a crowd-pleasing Aussie favourite.

This much-loved Oz classic finally arrives on DVD in this SPECIAL 2-DISC COLLECTORS EDITION boasting a brand new digital transfer and a feature length documentary on the making of the film.
