Greatly missed on TV screens, the nation’s favourite film critics Margaret Pomeranz and David Stratton reunite in a special event discussing movie adaptations of Australian books.

The famously sparring duo settle back into their critics’ chairs to offer their top five stand-out movies that do justice to the original text, the five-star films that bested the books and the flops that lost their lustre when transposed from page to screen.

This event is open captioned.
