A sweet-natured Australian film starring vibrant then-newcomers Hugh Jackman and Claudia Karvan, who sing a mean duet into the bargain. Jackman's a macho trucker with a secret: he writes romantic novels as Ruby Vale - who happens to be the crop-duster pilot (Karvan) who's engaged to the local vet. As one of Jackman's books is about to become a massive best-seller, the two outbackers find themselves on the road for the bright lights of Sydney. Here Jackman becomes involved with smart PR girl Angie Milliken, but, hey, we're not offering any prizes for guessing the outcome of this sunny, well-scripted movie.
