豆知識

Flashpoint is a 1972 Australian film.

Production

Film Australia were inspired to make further drama productions following the success of Three to Go (1970). They originally planned to make two films with common characters and opening scenes about the separate experiences of a father and son – the father would be a tradesman cop gin with unemployment at middle age while the son faces a new job.

Filming took place in the mining town of Newman approx 1200 km north of Perth in the Pilbara. Brian Hannant spent several weeks working among mining crews incognito, then developing a script with Frank Hardy and, later, British TV writer Harold Lander.

A subplot was written and shot where David had an affair with kindergarten teacher played by Kirrily Nolan. This was cut to keep the running time down.
