1 Lost and Found : Looking Back at Wake in Fright Amber Hilton , 2009 single work essay
— Appears in: Metro Magazine , December no. 163 2009; (p. 126-128)
'In 1970, Hilton Ambler attended one of the first screenings of Ted Kotcheff's Wake in Fright - the story of a young schoolteacher trapped in a nightmarish version of the Australian outback. With the film now restored and re-released after decades in its own wilderness, Ambler looks at the cultural milieu that gave rise to this curiously hybrid film set in Australia.'
