AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Kevin (Paul Couzens) and his best mate Bob (Carl Stever) share everything, even girls. They live in working class Bankstown in Sydney, and spend all their spare time restoring and cruising in Kevin’s FJ Holden. When Kevin meets Anne (Eva Dickinson), she allows both men to have sex with her, but a relationship develops with Kevin. She’s a shop assistant, he works at a car wrecker’s. They go to restaurants, race cars, get drunk, but the relationship falters over Kevin’s lack of respect for her and his loyalty to Bob. After a drunken confrontation at a party, Kevin arrives home to find the police waiting.'
