Here’s the first of my planned sketches for my GR big 7-0 countdown. I hope to do one for each of his many film/TV roles (though perhaps not the really obscure ones), and I may squeeze in some theatre roles if I can. This is ofc Rush as David Helfgott in “Shine” (1996), the film role which landed him an Oscar and catapulted him to international stardom.

Here’s a nifty wee article from 2013 about “Shine” from The Guardian: https://www.theguardian.com/film/australia-culture-blog/2013/dec/27/shine-rewatching-classic-australian-films It’s a fantastic film; I re-watched it recently and had forgotten just how powerful it was. Always worth a revisit if you haven’t seen it for a while - or worse, have never seen it!
