"Do, do, do you want me to take you down?". (Overly officious security guard Linda warns a young girl against trying to pass her, simply to visit the bathroom).

Light, frothy, harmless and overly preachy best describes this Ben Elton (Black Adder) feature. Unfortunately the cumbersome moral messages (Aboriginal land rights and Immigration) impede the real strengths (scenes where dialogue driven character development are on show) in Three Summers. The story of young love between a sweet couple (Rebecca Breeds and Nicholas Boshier) blooms over 3 Summers at a Folk Festival in rural Western Australia. The rest plays out like a series of skits highlighting a handful of sweet, well meaning characters. Harmless fun and importantly, Elton earnestly contributes to W.A.'s gradually maturing film industry. 6GUMS.
