The Images of Australians and Australia Depicted in Crocodile Dundee

Many images were brought up in Crocodile Dundee, about Australia and

Australians. All of these images are true, but the extent to which

they are is questionable. Images include the land and nature,

character and people and the Aboriginals. This movie was made for the

American market, it confirmed their beliefs about Australia and

Australians that they may have had, whether true or not.

The image portrayed in Crocodile Dundee in means of the land and

nature in Australia is a hot and dry Outback, and humid, wet Tropics.

This is true in the Outback and Tropics, but there is no evidence of

any other main cities or towns in the country. There are a very small

percentage of Australians and people in general living in the outback,

and they don't show where the majority of people live in Australia.

The Outback was shown as a dry, barren and dusty open area, and the

Tropics, peaceful, green and beautiful open areas. This is exactly

what the Outback is like, and once again you get the impression that

that is what Australia is like all over, except for the tropical areas

shown. This is confirming the image that the Americans believed to be

true. The Outback is very dry and hot, and the Tropics are very humid

and wet, the climates that we don't usually get in the main cities and

towns. Although these images are true in some parts of the continent

of Australia, it is not true for the main part. This has given the

Americans, and other viewers, a false image of where we live.

The town that Mick Dundee was from was called Walkabout Creek. It was

a small town with a small population of no more than 50 people. There

are a few tin sheds, a house or two and the local pub, but other than

that, there is very little else. This is a true image, if you are

talking about a small country town, but as the movie gives no evidence
