- Arts/Culture
This making-of documentary mixes insightful interviews, movie clips and footage of the Perfect Strangers film crew at work on the West Coast. Gaylene Preston's twisty thriller follows two strangers on an isolated island. Actors Sam Neill and Australian Rachael Blake describe their roles, and how Blake's character is "utterly magnetised" by the man she meets. Neill says that the "wild and unpredictable behaviour" in the finished film reflects the wild locations where they made the film. Gaylene Preston discusses what spurred her to write the script, and there's a look at the special effects used to create a storm at sea.
