Playing Beatie Bow is a 1986 Australian fantasy drama film based on the 1980 novel Playing Beatie Bow by Ruth Park. The film is directed by Donald Crombie based on a screenplay by Peter Gawler and Irwin Lane. It stars Imogen Annesley, Peter Phelps and Mouche Phillips.

Production

Playing Beatie Bow is directed by Donald Crombie, and produced by Jock Blair, Bruce Moir and John Morris. It is rated PG instead of the milder G because Abigail uses a swear word ("shit") towards the end of the film as well as two scenes in which Annesley appeared semi-nude. Also, due to Annesley only being 16 at the time of filming, the kissing scenes between herself and 26-year-old Phelps were "toned down" to avoid controversy.

Most of the film was shot in Adelaide, including using one of the city's iconic indoor amusement arcades "Downtown" and its popular second-floor roller skating rink for a scene early in the film. AU$400,000 was spent on recreating Sydney's Rocks area in a disused industrial site.
