Euphoria Against the Odds

The world premiere of Jane Campion’s An Angel at My Table was listed as one of the 50 greatest moments in the Sydney Film Festival’s first 50 years of running in a Sydney Morning Herald feature. Despite being interrupted three times by projector problems – “just the worst thing you can do to a director” – the film received a “euphoric” standing ovation and caused “an unseemly rush by distributors to get to Jane.”
