AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'In 1986, director Richard Lowenstein made a terrific movie about the lives of young people living in the Melbourne suburb of Richmond. Sam, the principal character in Dogs in Space, was played by the lead singer of INXS, Michael Hutchence, and he gave a flawless, immensely charismatic performance in the role. Oddly enough, Lowenstein’s excellent new documentary on his friend, Mystify, doesn’t mention Dogs in Space at all, and nor does it touch on Hutchence’s qualities as an actor. Apart from that rather curious omission, Mystify is a detailed and revealing portrait of a gifted musician whose apparently charmed life ended tragically.' (Introduction)
