John Pollak did Arts and Law at Sydney uni. He practiced Law for a short while and went into business. He made too much money for his own good and today is not so much retired as having little to do. He plays tennis and carries the bags for his wife when she goes overseas. When prompted and badgered he does the occasional review.
He goes to Ethiopia every now and then and where, with Professor McGuigan of the Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland, he is bringing the Sodis Program for safer water to the Tigray region.
When seen in public he is often hunched over a cup of coffee and a foccacio whilst immersed in a diabolical suduko. Or he is driving his wife to bridge.
This is a great movie. This is one of those rarities whose appeal cuts across all ages. Take your son/grandson daughter/granddaughter best mate/ girlfriend to it. You will love it. They will love it.
