Curiosidades

Yackety Yack is a 1974 Australian film about the making of a film directed by Dave Jones. It stars Jones and John Flaus. David Stratton called it "the Hellzapoppin' of poor cinema, a frequently hilarious spoof on the low budget film... a sheer delight."

Production

The film was heavily influenced by the work of Jean-Luc Godard. The script was originally written by Dave Jones in Montreal in 1970. Jones was an American who had worked in Hollywood before coming to teach at the Media Centre of La Trobe University in Australia in 1971.

The film was shot over five weeks in the evenings at the film studio at the university, using many staff and students of the film. It was finished at the end of 1972. Part of the budget came from the Experimental Film and Television Fund.
