Frog Dreaming is a 1986 Australian family adventure film written by Everett De Roche and directed by Brian Trenchard-Smith. It starred Henry Thomas, Tony Barry, Rachel Friend and Tamsin West.

Production

The film was originally directed by Russell Hagg. However the producer and writer were not satisfied with progress and tracked down Brian Trenchard-Smith who had just finished an episode of Five Mile Creek and asked him to take over. Trenchard-Smith liked the script and was interested in working with Henry Thomas, so he accepted.

Scenes from the movie were filmed in the Victorian town of Woods Point in the Yarra Ranges National Park. The former quarry site of Moorooduc Quarry Flora and Fauna Reserve, located in Mount Eliza, Victoria, was used as a location for Donkegin Hole. The Menzies Creek railway station was redressed as the Woods Point station. Nobelius Siding was used for the destination station of Cody's rail bike ride.

According to director Trenchard-Smith on the video commentary, the production company negotiated with the Walt Disney Company, which offered a $1 million box office guarantee. The company demanded $3 million, an amount Disney refused to give. Miramax eventually became the US distributor but did not effectively market the film.

The film was released under several alternate titles in different markets.
