The Grass is Greener - Harry M Miller
Television (Full Length Episode) – 1991
Harry M Miller grew up in New Zealand where he learnt the ropes of being a manager and promoter — including for the Howard Morrison Quartet — before moving to Australia. There he made a name for himself, bringing legendary entertainers like Judy Garland to the country, plus major theatrical productions like Jesus Christ Superstar. In this series about expat Kiwis in Australia, the charismatic salesman expands on his greatest achievements and his philosophy of working hard. He also contrasts the two countries, and explains why he spent the majority of his career in Australia. Miller died in July 2018 at age 84.
...I don't know what the formula for success is, but the formula for failure is to try and please everybody.– Harry M Miller
