''The True Story of Eskimo Nell'' (when screened in the United Kingdom, retitled Dick Down Under〔(IMDb Trivia )〕) is a 1975 Australian comedy film produced, directed, and written by Richard Franklin, and starring Max Gillies as Deadeye Dick and Serge Lazareff as Mexico Pete. The film was the first film produced by Richard Franklin. Based on and inspired by the bawdy ''Ballad of Eskimo Nell'', which had actually been banned in Australia, with Deadeye Dick and Mexico Pete setting forth through the Australian Outback in search of the infamous prostitute, Eskimo Nell. The film features large amounts of full frontal nudity which was one of the main attractions of the film at the time. The film was part of the Australian New Wave, with most of the film being shot in Ballarat and some in Canada. ==Plot== The film's unlikely protagonist is a mild-mannered window peeper named Dead-Eye Dick (Max Gillies). Dick spies on a Mexican couple. The husband is very jealous and is about to discover that his wife has a lover when Dick rescues the lover, whose moniker is Mexico Pete (Serge Lazareff). The worldly Pete counsels the shy Dick on his problems approaching women. Dick claims that he's waiting for an Alaskan Eskimo named Nell. Pete and Dick decide to travel to Alaska to find this fantasy woman, and they have several wacky misadventures along the way. 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「The True Story of Eskimo Nell」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
