In just two glittering minutes, this intro to the 1979 Sammy Awards for Australian film and television sums up the kitschy appeal of TV award shows. Beyond the glamour and joy of star-spotting, it's a valuable time capsule of what Australians were watching that year – and what the industry thought was worth celebrating. Iconic films (Mad Max) rub shoulders with forgotten flops (Dawn!), all set to the classic Hollywood tune 'That’s Entertainment!' – reworked into a witty (and sometimes awkward) roll call of media highlights. Listen for shoehorned nods to news anchor Brian Henderson, travel duo Mike and Mal Leyland, wartime soap The Sullivans, a Pears shampoo ad, a Patrick White adaptation, and countless more. You'll want to replay it to catch them all.
