SunLive Competition

Howick gets its close-up, and actor William McInnes (Look Both Ways) nails the can-do, get-ahead, ever-loving barbecue dad (with rocks in his head) in Brendon Donovan’s affectionate comedy-drama.

The hopes and dreams of political success that cleaning contractor Gazza Snell trumpets as the movie gets underway turn out to be a typical, expensive and short-lived caprice. He’s committed to the long haul only when it comes to making motorsport heroes out of his kart-racing teenage sons, confident 17-year-old Marc and 14-year-old Ed, repeatedly incited by the sensitive Gazza to surpass his older brother. He’s borrowed a fortune to make it all happen – and you may wish to take a skillet to him when you see the wounded expression that crosses his face as his regularly dismayed wife (Robyn Malcolm) confronts him with evidence of myriad unpaid household bills.

The Hopes and Dreams of Gazza Snell is screening at Rialto Tauranga.
