(Tal Ordell 1927)
7:00pm
G | 69 MINS
Family, Comedy, Drama,
Silent Film with music
Starring: Robin ‘Pop’ Ordell, Charles Roberts, Ray Salmon.
This film is a rare treasure of Australia’s Silent Screen heritage.
A delightful escapade of the adventures of “Fatty” Finn, the
scruffy leader of a gang of kids, and their attempts to race
Fatty’s pet goat Hector in a local goat race. This delightful
comedy is evidence that a classic silent film can still hold its
own. The film has it all – gangs and larrikins, marble bribes,
cricket, a poor little rich boy, an eloping couple – and of
course, the big billy goat race! In this film, Ordell who is
famous for playing Dave in the original screen version of
On Our Selection directs his own six-year-old son Robin
‘Pop’ Ordell in the role of Fatty Finn. The Kid Stakes is one
of the real gems of Australian silent era cinema, with wide
appeal to all ages and a charm that continues to this day.

score to accompany the film, receiving
tremendous response from audiences
around the world. Preston will perform
