00:00It's the biggest movie ever made outside of a major studio.

00:04Action!

00:06Blockbuster.

00:07Through the roof.

00:08Michael J. Crocodile Dundee.

00:14Action!

00:16It's sensational.

00:18That's a knife.

00:22That's a knife.

00:26Right at the start, John wanted to make a movie.

00:28We'd never made a movie.

00:29We grew up in gravel, and in gravel you learnt to have a go.

00:31So, we were having a go.

00:34He was the brains of the outfit.

00:35John said, you know, we're going into show business.

00:37The Paul Hogan show was huge.

00:39Good evening, viewers.

00:40Gravitas, Swagger, those guys had it in spades.

00:44Now, nobody knew anything about Australia, really.

00:46G'day, America.

00:48We wanted to make a movie that appealed to people from 7 to 70.

00:50Here's to Crocodile Dundee.

00:52I virtually wrote it walking down the street.

00:54Laughed my frock off.

00:55Laughed my frock off.

00:56I said, well, now there's an opportunity, and I think we should grab it.

01:00There was one significant naysayer.

01:02It was his view that the script was a load of bollocks.

01:04It's stuffed.

01:06Linda freaked.

01:08She suddenly recognised, well, hang on, I'm working with an amateur here.

01:11Ah, nothing like a double bourbon to start the day off right.

01:14I wasn't prepared for what it really was.

01:17I get a phone call from Packer.

01:19Ian put in some money and then pulled it out.

01:21Left us with a shortfall.

01:22But John, he loved to solve problems.

01:25Hulk said, let's go make a movie.

01:29Crocodile Dundee is a good film.

01:32Corroboree and dance.

01:33Enjoy it.

01:34You have to follow your heart.

01:35And they did.

01:36I love you!

01:38Love.

01:41There's probably never been anything so large across the spectrum.

01:46From larrikinism to the rest of the world, that was Australian.

01:49This was a terrific Australian film.

01:53Oh, mates.

01:55He did take a bullet for me, John.

01:57She's done a great job.

01:58Thanks, really.

02:00I miss my mate.

02:02The house dropped.

02:04It changed my life.

02:12But, you know, if you've got the ability to make people laugh

02:15and forget their woes for a bit,

02:17what a job.
