    A little hard to invoke the impatient jackass rule due to the multitude of guesses, isn't it? :)

    Not really; as per the rules, all we need is 24 hours from an undisputed guess (currently Ara) to be able to move on (it would be her turn).

    Nope, think a slightly more well-known (Oscar-winning) Australian actor. The other Aussie actor you might know of may not be as well-known overseas but IMO is a far better actor.

    edit - and apologies for my tardiness, once again I got called in to work. Such a drag, that :D

    Nope, I guess you've got the right one for one of the actors in it, but who was the other Aussie in The Quick And The Dead?

    Taking a wild stab ...

    Maybe it was that movie where Mr. Crowe plays a skinhead leader? I'm trying to remember ... was it called 'Hooligans'?

    That was Romper Stomper. And no, that's not it either. Since it's taking a LOT longer than I anticipated, another clue: the other Aussie actor of note was Jack Thompson (also in "Midnight In The Garden Of Good And Evil and Star Wars Episode II among others) and Russ played a homosexual man.

    Well, I don't know what else to give as hints, and I may not be able to get back here for a few days as the library is closed for a few days so to sum up:
    It's an Aussie movie made in 1994, Russell Crowe plays a homosexual man, Jack Thompson plays Russell's father who has a stroke and spends part of the rest of the movie talking to the camera. It has a name similar to that of a Tom Clancy-penned book which was made into a movie starring Ben Affleck and Morgan Freeman. If that doesn't help any further, then someone who Googled it can post the right answer.

    Sorry, I IMDBed this one. Kudos to Aldazar, this was quite a poser.
