Harry Southwell (born 1882, date of death unknown) was an Australian actor, writer and film director best known for making films about Ned Kelly. He was born in Wales and spent a couple of years in America, where he adapted some short stories by O Henry into two reel films. He moved to Australia in 1919, where he used his experience as a screenwriter to impress investors to back him making features. Few of his movies were commercially successful.〔Andrew Pike and Ross Cooper, ''Australian Film 1900–1977: A Guide to Feature Film Production'', Melbourne: Oxford University Press, 1998, 96.〕 After making ''Down Under'' in Western Australia he went to London for two years then returned to Australia in 1931. ==Feature films== *''The Kelly Gang'' (1920) *''The Hordern Mystery'' (1920) *''When the Kellys Were Out'' (1923) *''David'' (1924) *''The Bells'' (1925) *''The Seventh Commandment'' (1925) *''Down Under'' (1927) *''When the Kellys Rode'' (1934) *''The Burgomeister'' (1935) *''A Message to Kelly'' (1947) (abandoned) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Harry Southwell」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
