Paddington Lace

Made by The Commonwealth Film Unit 1970. Directed by Chris McCullough. Paddington is one of Sydney's oldest suburbs. It has developed in a similiar way to New York's Greenwich Village or London's Chelsea and in 1970 became Sydney's artist colony. This drama captures the essence of Paddington in those days, with footage of the Victorian style architecture and a depiction of the sort of people who lived in Paddington at that time - its heyday as a bohemian arts community.
