FIRST PERSON

I am Sharon Kirsopp … and I’m a reproductive-loss co-ordinator I manage the reproductive-loss service within The Royal Women’s Hospital, which provides support and care to bereaved families and their deceased babies.

The death of a baby is absolutely devastating and traumatic. So it’s really important for us to ensure that we give families opportunities and information about creating memories with their babies.

That might be encouraging them to spend time with their baby; holding and cuddling and dressing them, and having photographs taken or handprints and footprints. If they want to, they can take their baby home for a visit.

It’s overwhelmingly sad; I mean the amount of grief and death that we experience, and in my job that’s all that I encounter. I’m very grateful that I have a lovely family at home. My kids are teenagers now, so they really understand what I do. When I come home and say I’ve had a bad day and I need a hug they’ll just give me that extra-long hug.

I’m also the point of contact where families are coming back post-discharge to find out more information. It might be a family whose baby died perhaps a few months ago but, more commonly, many, many years ago. Each year we have a memorial service to acknowledge and remember babies who have died and invite families back.

Society’s view of little babies dying has altered dramatically, as has the way in which hospitals, healthcare services and the community respond to death. Back then, it was normal practice to not encourage women to not spend time with their babies or see or hold them, thinking that if they didn’t see them, they wouldn’t become attached.

One women who came back had a baby who died in the 1960s. She actually wasn’t even sure if it was a little boy or a girl – she never saw him. When I helped her find out about her son, whom she then named Brian, she had a plaque placed at his gravesite: “Never held, never seen but never forgotten”.

I think that is the message that all of us need to remember and know is that these little babies, no matter how small, no matter how long they have lived or didn’t live, that these little people are important and will never be forgotten. ●

BY JASON SOUTH \ Melbourne

A study in contrasts at the biology building at Monash University,

Two years ago I was stumbling through the Gold Coast airport, juggling a skyscraper of suitcases, when Chris Hemsworth strolled past. He’d filmed two Thor movies by then and was a Hollywood star, but nobody seemed to care or bother him. I cared – I strained, aching for an eyeful, caught a meaningful glimpse and have been bereft since. Hemsworth explains the appeal of keeping an Australian home – a peaceful, private buffer from the US movie machine – inside. And we are delighted to have on our cover, and featured within, the brilliant Jane Kennedy, on her sensational return to radio for Triple M. ●

TRIPLE TREAT THE MULTI-TALENTED JANE KENNEDY REVELS IN HER NEW ROLE

J

ane Kennedy is running late for our interview. It’s the second week of the school holidays and she’s just driven 40 kilometres and back to buy her children (she has five) the most Instagrammable milkshakes you’ve ever seen.

“I had a bit of mum guilt and so I said I’d take them,” says the 53-year-old, as she flashes me her iPhone. On her screen are images of milkshakes that look more like desserts on steroids – all towering ice-cream, fairy floss and wafers.

We’re at St Ali in South Melbourne, across the road from Southern Cross Austereo’s Melbourne headquarters where, since October, the actor, comedian, writer and producer has been cohosting Triple M’s national drive show with longtime friend Mick Molloy. The Kennedy Molloy show launched in Victoria before going national in January.

It’s been close to 30 years since the pair famously worked together on Triple M’s popular breakfast show, The D-Generation, which later aired on TV and ultimately launched both their careers.

A lot has happened in those three decades.

After writing and performing together on the ABC comedy classic The Late Show, Kennedy went on to co-found Working Dog Productions with her now-husband Rob Sitch, along with fellow D-Generation colleagues Santo Cilauro and Tom Gleisner and producer Michael Hirsh.

It’s considered one of Australia’s most successful production companies with a string of television and movie hits including Frontline, The Castle, Thank God You’re Here and Have You Been Paying Attention?.

Kennedy says while she has “dabbled in projects from home,” mostly casting for Working Dog, as

well as a series of cookbooks, this is her “first, proper, full-time job” since her eldest child was born almost 17 years ago.

“I really feel very lucky that I had the opportunity to be pretty much a full-time mum for nearly 17 years,” says Kennedy, who has five children with Sitch, including twin boys – their youngest – who are in their final year of primary school.

Even now you get the feeling it’s the role she is most proud of and one she was a little reluctant to let go of.

She says it was Molloy who approached her about doing the show, which airs between 4pm and 6pm weekdays in Melbourne and Sydney and on a one-hour delay in other states.

“It happened pretty organically really,” she explains. “Mick and I were at a charity lunch together and I don’t what it was, maybe it was one too many Negronis. But he said: ‘Hey, I’ve been thinking. What about you and I get together to do a show?’ ” Twelve months earlier, Molloy, who also has twin boys, had made it known to Triple M that he’d like to move to the drive-time slot for family reasons.

“Mick knew our family situation, which was five kids and very busy,” recalls Kennedy. “And he said: ‘I don’t know whether this time is right for you or not?’

“I went home and had the family chat and within 10 seconds the kids went ‘do it mum’. I think they could see I was ready to fly a bit.”

She says Sitch has been equally supportive.

“So, I literally have two lives now. I’m mum from 6am to 1pm then I’m rock chick from 1pm to 7pm. In my dreams,” she laughs.

Kennedy, who started her career as a radio

I N T E RVI E W ● R AC H E L W E L L S

T H E W E E K LY R E V I E W

producer at 3UZ, is relishing being back on air.

She describes the show as “adult, news-based comedy” where anything from politics to reality TV is discussed. The long-time friends are clearly comfortable with each other and it comes across on air through their jocular banter and friendly ribbing.

In fact, she says she and Molloy are so familiar with each other they didn’t even discuss the content or format of the show until long after they had agreed to do it.

“Isn’t that funny? As it loomed closer we said: ‘We really should talk about what we’re going to do.’ I think I just trusted his instinct and I think he thought the same of me... So, we just went, ‘let’s just see what happens’.”

K

ennedy says she and Molloy are “very much on the same page with most things” but jokes that if he could, the long-time Richmond supporter would devote far more on-air content to the Tigers.

“I’m a great fan of football but can we just stop banging on about the Tigers and their Grand Final win,” she laughs.

They are doing something right. In the first ratings of the year, they managed to increase their Melbourne audience share by 2.2 per cent.

That dipped slightly in the most recent survey in late April.

However, they gained listeners in Sydney, Adelaide and Brisbane.

“We know it will take a while to get traction.

It’s a new show and we’ve still got to let the rest of the country know we’re actually on,” says Kennedy, who is enjoying bringing “a female perspective” to what has traditionally been a male audience.

PI C T U R E ● J U LIA N KI N G M A

“All I want to do is do a great radio show and make each other laugh and just be myself.”

Kennedy says the freedom to be herself is one of the reasons radio remains her favourite medium, more than three decades since she was first on air.

“I love the freedom of just being able to rock up and do a show and just rely on your voice and your brain.

“I must say that aspect is very pleasing. Not to have to go on TV and do the whole hair and makeup palaver which girls have to do.”

She says she is determined to one day do a TV show “where I just wear mascara and I pull my hair in a ponytail and wear a black suit”.

Though she concedes: “People can’t cope with that, with watching a woman not dressed up properly.”

You get the sense that, for Kennedy, radio, perhaps, is the next best thing.

“It is a lot easier to be yourself on radio and to have no filter,” she says. “It’s great to be back.” ●

Ale of the century

STOMPING GROUND

The two-year-old Stomping Ground brewery and beer hall in Collingwood has just brewed its 100th beer, and co-owner Steve Jaffares and head brewer Ashur Hall are celebrating with a special-edition ale.

The Celie Centenarian Ale is an easy-drinking English bitter-style beer with sweet caramel and bready malt notes. It is the 100-year-old recipe of another Collingwood head brewer, the great grandfather of Andy Butt, whose work journal was given to Stomping Ground so his recipes could live on as part of Melbourne’s independent brewing scene.

Stomping Ground has recreated the beer exactly, using four different types of malt, six varieties of hops and a Whitbread Ale yeast.

It was named after the 101-year-old, beer-loving grandmother of a Stomping Ground punter. The indomitable Celie Curtis is a firm believer that her love of the stuff has contributed to her long life.

Jaffares is offering a free pot with any meal for seniors. However, you must get along to Stomping Ground within the next month for a taste; it’s a limited-edition brew and only available on tap in the beer hall. ● Co-owner Steve Jeffares, Celie Curtis – who gives her name to a 100-

FOOD

Hot ticket in town Bookings are sambal-hot at this South-East Asian restaurant, which opened in March. Two communal tables dominate the soaring space. There’s now a more intimate mezzanine level, but we sit at the bar and watch head chef Khanh Nguyen, who’s worked at some of Sydney’s best restaurants.

Every plate is a revelation, from one-bite Nyonya pie pastry shells to palmsugar-sweetened mounds of brittle tempeh with shredded ginger flower. Perfectly round Wagyu rendang buns are fiery with fermented sambal and springy XO egg noodles are mixed through with a sinful helping of chicken crackling. Native ingredients like bush tomato appear on lemongrass-sambal octopus and Spanish mackerel with tangy concentrated asam-laksa broth.

Desserts are textural triumphs, especially bika ambon, a pulpous cake for banana-bread lovers. But the dish I’m still craving is an off-menu tumble of buttery roti with Vegemite curry dipping sauce, fragrant with kaffir lime. ● Sunda ● 18 Punch Lane ● 9654 8190 ● sunda.com.au

Nine menus at cool venues THE RAVE RESTAURANTS AND CAFES IN MELBOURNE ARE RIGHT HERE

M

elbourne has seen no shortage of new eateries in recent months, with venues from Elwood to Footscray all commanding rave customer reviews.

Here’s nine venues to add to your must-visit list, from 350-seat grill houses to one-dish-only cafes.

VACATI O N

Natural History Bar & Grill

Vacation

Ishizuka

In a city full of fantastic, but also fairly similar, eateries, Natural History Bar and Grill is a welcome addition to the market.

The maximalist decor (housed in a 1940s bank building with museum-inspired displays), along with the meat-heavy menu, is unlike anything currently on offer in Melbourne.

The vibe is more akin to a venue you’d find in London or New York, complete with 350 seats, prawn cocktails, decadent desserts and a bar/cafe for walk-in fast eats.

The restaurant accepts lunch and dinner bookings for sized groups, which is perhaps even more impressive for a Melbourne establishment in 2018.

Many Melbourne cafes were quick to embrace the millennial-pink trend, but none executed the look as well as Vacation.

Upon entering the cafe, a sense of instant calm is facilitated by the soothing pastel tones, minimalist furniture and friendly service.

Despite being located on the corner of Flinders and Exhibition streets, the space truly feels like a vacation away from the hustle and bustle of the CBD. Several takeaway options are available during the week for its city worker clientele, but there’s also the option to grab a seat and relax with a limited food menu on weekends.

New fine dining restaurant Ishizuka subscribes to the “kaiseki” style of Japanese cuisine – several courses of beautifully plated and seasonal food served in a prescribed order.

Ishizuka is uniquely intimate for seating only 16 patrons at a time around a central counter. It’s owned by Tomotaka Ishizuka, who was previously the head chef at Crown’s Koko.

The seasonal nature of kaiseki means the menu is constantly changing but is known to feature South Australia Wagyu, simmered duck breast, sea urchin and boiled black prawn.

Bad Love Club

Tiggy

Following its successful establishment in Sydney, Viking-inspired restaurant Mjølner has landed in Melbourne.

Owned by the same team as Eau de Vie, Mjølner is the group’s most serious and meaty venture yet.

On the menu is selection of “carvery”’ meals featuring rotating meat, fish and vegetarian options.

Starters include oysters and clams, sides are vegetable-based, and desserts range from mulledwine sorbet to cheese.

Gourmet toasties are certainly having a moment in Melbourne, but few make them as well as Footscray’s Bad Love Club. Described as a “boozy bakery”, the part-time diner transforms into a bar at night. On offer throughout the entire day are homemade baked goods including pecan, banoffee and vegan peanut-butter pies, alongside bagels and fantastic jaffles for lunch, and cocktails after 5pm.

The venue itself has the feel of an old-school American diner.

Tiggy is about as simple and intimate as cafes come.

Every weekday, this eatery in Schoolhouse Studios creates just one meal (with a meat and vegetarian variation) featuring quality, healthy and weatherappropriate ingredients.

Recent Tiggy dishes include roast pumpkin and charred cauliflower in curry sauce, cumin lamb and mushroom burritos, and Persian roast chicken.

Punters can visit the cafe’s website daily to see what’s on offer before visiting.

Monroe

You have to be quick to snag a loaf of Ovens Street Bakery’s coveted sourdough bread, which can only be bought on Sundays. Even if you get to the bakery when it opens, be prepared to wait at least 15 minutes before reaching the front of the line.

Alongside the sourdough loaves are croissants, pastries and Polish doughnuts.

Keep an eye on the bakery’s Instagram for changes to operating times, including the potential introduction of Saturday trading in the near future.

There’s no shortage of traditional brunch venues in Melbourne’s inner-suburbs, so the Thai-inspired dishes at Monroe offer a refreshing point of difference. The cafe’s identity and design represents the dual elements of virtue and pride, said to be representative of Marilyn Monroe (hence the cafe’s name).

Dishes such as coriander and ginger prawn fritters, and crispy banana roti with mascarpone, sit alongside Melbourne breakfast staples.

Ovens Street Bakery

The same team that created Left Field – the cafe that took Carnegie by storm – has recently opened Plain Sailing near Elwood Beach.

By day, Plain Sailing serves classic Melbourne brunch staples with some Middle Eastern influences and, on Thursday to Sunday nights, there’s also a dinner menu with small plates, salads and share dishes. Bookings are available for the night menu, but expect to wait for a table during busy weekend brunch times.

harcoal used to be something you only found at the bottom of a smouldering wood fire, but these days you’re as likely to find it on a menu as in your fireplace.

Consuming charcoal is not new – the ancient Egyptians used it for its antibacterial and antifungal properties – but dishes that use activated charcoal are now popular in everything from rainbow bagels and turmeric lattes, to icecream and unicorn cakes.

Long Story Short in Port Melbourne has a reputation for being one of Melbourne’s most Instagrammable cafes, but when owner Ly Nguyen put charcoal fish and chips on the menu even she wasn’t anticipating the excited response she got.

“Activated charcoal fish and chips was only supposed to be a special item on the menu, but it has become so popular that it’s now permanent,” she says.

Customers love the fresh fish fillets battered in activated charcoal and served with a vibrant beetroot labneh. And while some did liken its appearance to

“Activated charcoal fish and chips was only supposed to be a special item on the menu, but it has become so popular that it’s now permanent.” - LY NGUYEN “burnt poo”, Nguyen says the striking dish undoubtedly piqued a lot of interest.

“The visuals can be quite daunting for some,” she acknowledges, “However, we believe it’s also why people are more inclined to order it.”

On the other side of the city at Cornerstone of Northcote, you’ll regularly find customers sitting beneath the hanging greenery and natural timber decor ordering dishes that contain charcoal.

“We use charcoal in our house-made lemonade, lattes and waffles,” says Dani Walters, who owns the cafe with her husband, Will Walters.

“Customers love the charcoal menu options as they look and taste amazing – although the taste is down to our amazing chefs, not the charcoal, which has no flavour.” There can be some benefits to consuming charcoal, according to nutritionist Fiona Tuck, but only under certain circumstances.

“Activated charcoal can bind to toxins, poisons and pathogens, so it can be very beneficial when [recommended] by medical professionals to treat drug and alcohol poisoning,” she says.

‘‘It is also good to take when travelling to countries such as Bali to prevent Bali belly or treat food poisoning. Some people also claim it can be effective in alleviating gas and bloating.”

But she says that consuming charcoal in foods such as bread, pasta, smoothies, ice cream and juices in the hope of detoxing is a “fad and completely pointless”, and while charcoal does absorb toxins, it also traps nutrients, and can lead to nutrient deficiencies if consumed regularly.

“Activated charcoal binds to medications, decreasing their effectiveness and lowers the absorption of nutrients,” Tuck says. “This is a particular risk for those with anaemia, underactive thyroid conditions and people suffering with malabsorption gut issues such as IBS and Crohn’s disease. It is important not to take activated charcoal near medications.”

So while activated charcoal may have a black mark against its nutritional qualities, judging from the number of menus featuring it across Melbourne, crossing to the dark side looks like it’s very much in vogue. ●

FILM

Not to be missed

L

ast year was the year of huge sequels: Star Wars: The Last Jedi, Despicable Me 3, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, and the highest-earning film by a female director, Wonder Woman. But among all the big-budget films, many fine smaller films went under the radar. Here are some gems you should track down.

LAND OF MINE \ Quite simply one of the best films of 2017. A tense nail-biter that makes your heart race, it’s unwatchable at times for sheer anxiety.

Inspired by true events and set after WWII, it follows a group of teenage German soldiers ordered to clear (by hand!) landmines buried along the coastline by their fellow Germans. It was nominated for the Foreign Language Academy Award.

A LIFE IN WAVES \ Beep. Bop. Boop. Electronic

music is pretty low on my list of things I’m interested in, so I was surprised to be so taken by this documentary. I had never heard of the electronicmusic pioneer Suzanne Ciani, but I had heard her work, without realising it. “I was always told I was different,” Ciani says, but I walked away from this film not thinking that at all; rather, how lucky we are to have this genius creator in our lives.

BAD GENIUS \ I’m always fond of a good heist film, and this one has the added interest of being set around the high-pressured environment of school exams. I’m not sure many people have seen a lot of Thai films over the past few years (or decade), but you can’t go wrong with this. Seek it out.

A SCENE FROM JUNGLE

DAWSON CITY: FROZEN TIME \ Hand on heart, I’ve never experienced a narrative as woven together as director Bill Morrison achieves in this documentary.

In 1978, an entire swimming pool of 533 discarded film reels was discovered in Dawson City, Canada. Morrison has made a narrative of the story of Dawson City and the discovery, using the faded, incomplete, volatile nitrate film images that were rescued. Simply an incredible discovery and story.

HECTOR ALVAREZ A

JUNGLE \ An Australian film that deserves more recognition. Daniel Radcliffe (pictured, second from left, with his co-stars) is outstanding in the lead role, one of the adventurers who can’t resist an opportunity to go deep into the jungle to seek out an Indian tribe. There are some fine moments in this film, but be prepared for emotional punches and mental exhaustion. And it’s a true story.

OBIT \ So, it’s a doc about obituary writers. Now, before you roll your eyes and think that’s quite morbid, keep in mind what one of The New York Times journalists says in the doco:

“It’s counterintuitive, ironic even, but obits have next to nothing to do with death and in fact absolutely everything to do with life”. Loved every moment of it.

THE GALAHS \ An Aussie documentary about the

first group of Australian Rules footballers who went across to Ireland to take on the All-Ireland Gaelic Football champions.

The incredible story is enhanced by lovely old home-video footage of the players training and touring around the country, and extracts from the actual television broadcast of the game.

A GHOST STORY \ This film’s lead character is a guy with a white sheet over his head. And there’s even eyes cut out in the sheet. But somehow, this film has a mystical, alluring and emotional core that is haunting, and it drew me in. ● Rhett Bartlett is a film reviewer for 774 ABC radio Melbourne, and writes obituaries for The Hollywood Reporter Reporter.

HOMEGROWN HERO CHRIS HEMSWORTH KEEPS HIS FEET ON SOLID GROUND, WRITES SIMONE LEE

CONTINUES » P26

O

ne of Hollywood’s handsomest leading men, Chris Hemsworth’s multiple turns as Thor, the Avengers’ Norse God, has earned him a massive female following during his tenure in one of the Hollywood’s biggest film franchises. Now Thor is back in action in Avengers: Infinity War, hammer in hand, but missing his right eye thanks to his terrible battle with Hela in last year’s Thor: Ragnarok.

Hemsworth isn’t complaining, however, given that he doesn’t need to wear an actual eye patch thanks to clever CGI work.

“We had problems with the eye patch because it kept falling off,” Hemsworth explains. “They then decided to use CGI to create the effect so I didn’t have to wear the thing.

“But I’m not complaining. Thor still has short hair so it’s one hour less time spent in hair and make-up not having to have the wig put on!”

One of the new twists in Infinity War is how the superhero wattage is taken to extremes, with virtually all of the Marvel Comics Universe stars making an appearance and getting to know one another. Hemsworth confessed that one of the biggest thrills he had was when Thor meets the Guardians of the Galaxy team. “I think what people are going to be excited about is what I was excited about – that’s Thor meeting the Guardians and Iron Man meeting Doctor Strange,” he said.

The 34-year-old Chris Hemsworth was born and raised in Australia and first established his acting credentials on the popular Oz soap opera, Home and Away. He brief ly struggled to find work after moving to Los Angeles in 2007, but ultimately made his mark in Thor, Thor: The Dark World, The Avengers and Avengers: Age of Ultron. He has also earned critical acclaim for his work in Rush, playing the part of late, great, racing-car driver James Hunt and as the computer hacker in the Michael Mann thriller Blackhat.

FROM » P25

Chris, your role as Thor in the Thor and Avengers films not only keeps you extremely busy, but often you’re away from home for long periods.

How tough is that for you?

It breaks my heart every time I have to go away. A few months back I remember how I had just been home for 10 days and then I had to fly away again.

My daughter was heartbroken and said, “But you just got off work ...” It’s really tough.

You often speak of how important your wife Elsa Pataky is and how she has sacrificed her own

Does that include learning Spanish f luently?

(Grunts) I’m working on it. It’s only been eight years! (Laughs). Honestly, I already understand a lot more when Elsa speaks to the children in Spanish.

But not everything. Our children speak fluent Spanish, though, and I love that they are growing up in both my culture and hers. My standard excuse for not speaking Spanish myself is that my brain is already too full with all the lines that I have to memorise for my movies! (Smiles).

LUKE MUN

Hemsworth and his wife, the stunningly beautiful Spanish actress Elsa Pataky ((Fast Five, Furious 6), recently appeared together in 12 Strong. They make their home in Australia’s Byron Bay where they live on a sprawling $7-million estate with their fiveyear-old daughter, India Rose, and three-year-old twin boys Tristan and Sasha.

Chris’s younger brother Liam has achieved success in his own right with his work in the Hunger Games films while gaining tabloid fame with his relationship with pop-star Miley Cyrus.

incredible films that I’ve been able to do. I’m so lucky to have her in my life and I want to be able to do as much as I can to be there for her.

Chris Hemsworth shares time with daughter India Rose.

acting career to help look after your children so that you can work as often as you have?

I couldn’t have done all this without her support.

She’s given so much to me that I can’t begin to express how appreciative and grateful I am to her.

She’s the one who has put her own work aside so I can chase my crazy dream and be part of these

Is there a big difference between your wife’s native Spanish culture and your Australian culture?

It’s not that big, I don’t think. One big similarity between us is that both of us have big families who like to party at night. Everyone is very loud and everyone feels very close. We all laugh so much together and it’s really beautiful. I think the fact that there isn’t really any big gap between our cultures and ways of seeing things is one of the reasons we get along so well together.

“Living in Australia allows me to be away from a world where you can lose touch with reality sometimes.”

– CHRIS HEMSWORTH

How often do you get a chance to go to Spain with Elsa and your kids?

Usually we’re able to get away to Spain in the summer for a few weeks and later this year we want to spend a lot more time in Spain because I’ll have some time off. One funny thing about living in Byron Bay back in Australia is that sometimes I think there are more Spaniards there than locals!

Sometimes I wonder if I got things mixed up and I accidentally flew to Madrid. I hear a lot of Spanish in Byron Bay. You’re known as one of the nicest figures in the film business. What keeps you grounded?

You’re very kind but I think a lot of it has a lot to do

with being with my wife, who means so much to me, and also the people you surround yourself with. I have a fantastic family and especially parents who have taught me to be modest. I’ve also been lucky to stay in touch with friends whom I have known since I was a little boy. They make sure that I don’t take myself too seriously.

Does living in Australia also help, as opposed to the kind of attention that you would receive and expose your family to if you lived in Los Angeles?

Moving back to Australia was a very good decision for us. There, I can be with people and talk about things that have nothing to do with the film business. That’s almost impossible in Los Angeles.

Living in Australia allows me to be away from a world where you can lose touch with reality sometimes. I don’t want to be too negative about Hollywood because it’s given me so many extraordinary opportunities, but I’m much more at ease back home.

You’ve enjoyed an extraordinary journey as an actor. What was it like getting started?

(Laughs) When I was 17, I one day decided this is what I wanted to do. Ever since then, it’s been a constant battle of, ‘I can do it’ versus ‘No I can’t’.

Much like anyone else chasing down a dream. I got a job pretty quick when I got to Hollywood (2009’s Star Trek Trek), so I was very fortunate in that sense.

Then I didn’t work for a while and I started to think it might not work.

But Thor came up, really out of nowhere, and it hasn’t stopped since then. If I could write down the formula and understand how and why it happened, I could bottle it. I don’t know how it worked, to be honest. A lot of it had to do with timing. I was in the right place at the right time. ● AVENGERS: INFINITY WAR ● villagecinemas.com.au

CINEMAS ARE PULLING BIGGER AUDIENCES THAN EVER

RICHARD CORNISH

T H E S U N T H E AT R E

WILLEM-DIRK DU TOIT

I

t is reasonable to wonder why, when for $10 a month you can stream as many movies as you like from the comfort of your couch, are cinemas are more profitable than they’ve been in years?

It has everything to do with the quality of the experience, according to general manager of Cinema Nova in Carlton, Kristian Connelly. The cinema, he says, is one of the few places we go where we will not be interrupted.

It’s all very well to put on a movie at home only to find yourself pulled back into social media 10 minutes later, but a cinema is one of the few remaining places where most of us agree mobile phones should be left untouched.

“At Nova we strongly discourage smartphone use during the feature,” Connelly says. ‘‘Cinema is an immersive experience that is difficult or impossible to recreate at home, plus it’s an opportunity to engage with friends and strangers over a shared experience.’’

Connelly says the other factor underpinning Nova’s success, is the curated programs it can offer.

“As we put so much effort into our film selection, audiences can have faith that what they will see at Cinema Nova will be highly rewarding or positively challenging,” Connelly says.

“This simply cannot be said for streaming – a service that provides quantity but is a very mixed bag when it comes to quality.”

As well as a better calibre of movies, some Melbourne cinemas offer extras, such as Nova’s interviews with filmmakers, or host movie-club gettogethers. Some offer rewards programs.

Connelly says allowing patrons to consume alcoholic drinks, and reduced ticket prices on Monday nights ($7 before 4pm and $10 after) are also big drawcards.

“It’s worth noting that these events and offers predate streaming,’’ he adds. ‘‘It’s simply that we put a great deal of energy into them, which audiences appreciate.”

About 11 million people visit a Village Cinema in Victoria and Tasmania annually, and Mohit Bhargava, general manager of sales and marketing at Village Entertainment, says the chain’s biggest drawcard is still the blockbuster, and the heightened experience that cinema technology offers.

Village’s rival, Hoyts, has launched a Frenchinspired menu, for its upper-end tickets, by chef Manu Feildel.

New boutique cinemas are popping up all over Melbourne. Thornbury Picture House opened its doors in April this and seats 57 people in the former 1919 motor garage.

Palace Cinemas are opening venues in Moonee Ponds and Coburg, and a Sun Theatre – from the team behind the beloved art deco Sun Theatre in Yarraville – will arrive in Footscray next year.

Outdoor summer cinemas are still hugely popular in Melbourne’s CBD, including the original, recently refurbished Rooftop Cinema in Swanston Street,

now joined by venues in St Kilda, Albert Park, the Dandenong Ranges and Caulfield Racecourse.

Moonlight Cinema still runs in the Royal Botanic Gardens, as well as the Lido on the Roof in Hawthorn, showing a mix of art house and major studio releases.

Melbourne’s two drive-in cinemas, Village’s Coburg Drive-In and Dandenong’s Lunar Drive-In – the oldest cinema of its type in Australia where an entire carload can watch for about $30 – are also enjoying a bit of a boom. Lunar reports that its business has grown 10 per cent every year over the past eight years.

Owner and operator of the Thornbury Picture House, Gus Berger, was behind the George Revival Cinema in St Kilda in 2013.

“We are a small cinema but our screen isn’t,’’ he says. ‘‘Our ticket prices are also less expensive and our homemade popcorn more affordable.’’

Always looking to innovate, Berger also plans to support local filmmakers by offering them a platform to screen their works.

“Cinema has faced down the advent of television, video stores, and now streaming; it will survive.

There’s no better way to watch a film.” ●

HOW TO...

Write a book IT’S A SIMPLE FORMULA: STOP DREAMING AND DO IT

GETTY IMAGES

A

pparently, everyone has a novel in them.

According to a psychic I saw a few years ago, I have four. Talk about pressure. Still, it’s all very well to have one in you, but, like a baby, it’s got to come out.

Catherine Deveny has been making “a very good living” from writing and speaking for the past 25 years.

She’s written a how-to book on writing: Use Your Words (Black Inc. 2016), and has run The Gunnas Writing Masterclasses since 2014.

“I thought I’d run two classes. I’ve run over 200,” Deveny says.

She attracts all types. “Thirty per cent professional writers, 30 per cent amateur writers, 30 per cent beginner writers and 10 per cent randoms: people who just heard that it’s fun,” she says. Deveny tells them all the same thing: “Pull your finger out, get over yourself and get on with it.

Your excuses are bullshit.”

And don’t tell anyone you’re writing a book.

“In order to write, you need to build up a head of steam,” Deveny says.

“Because that’s what keeps you going. If you talk about it, it dissipates.”

Louisa Deasey was writing a novel and was Instagramming the whole process.

The ultimate in dissipation? “I don’t know if I’d recommend doing it that way!” she says in reflection. But it was a way of sharing what she’d uncovered. “I discovered all this stuff in the State Library about Dad, and it didn’t feel real until I posted it and had a bit of feedback,” says the author, whose second memoir, A Letter from Paris, came about after she found hundreds of pages of her father’s work in seven libraries around the world.

“I liked people’s encouraging comments. And I go back to those posts now and I can see how far I’ve come, from the first to the final draft in seven months—that blew my mind.”

“In order to write, you need to build up a head of steam. Because that’s what keeps you going. If you talk about it, it dissipates.”

– CATHERINE DEVENY

Deasey’s written an e-book: Secrets of Bestselling Memoirs, and an online course titled Write Your Memoir, because she loves the genre. It’s no wonder.

“If Dad hadn’t written his memoirs, I wouldn’t know anything,” she says.

“Even if it’s not published, I really see the value of people writing their own memoir. People’s lives are just fascinating.”

Books can also change lives. “Don’t underestimate the desire to be useful,” says Deveny.

Mental, out this year, is described by publisher Black Inc. as a go-to guide for anyone with a mental illness or supporting someone who has one.

“I co-wrote it with a Gunner, Dr Steve Ellen, the head of psychiatry at Peter Mac,” Deveny says.

“He came because he wanted to write a book about everything he had gathered.”

So if you have a book, or four, in you, how do you get them out?

Despite Deasey’s public book-writing process, she agrees with Deveny: keep it quiet. “Don’t tell anyone about it, at least for the first draft.”

Yes, these two experts agree. Shut up and write. ● UPCOMING BOOKS \

An already aesthetically pleasing city, Sydney shines a light on its best features for three weeks. Vivid Sydney sees landmarks transformed by colourful projections and light sculptures pop up around the city, and includes a program of live music and talks.

From May 25, the Opera House will be transformed by the artwork of Jonathan Zawada, Customs House will be illustrated with Gumnut babies Snugglepot and Cuddlepie, and artists such as Iron & Wine and Middle Kids will serenade festival-goers.

The city of churches explores a cheekier side every June when the Adelaide Cabaret Festival rolls into town. Jazz and burlesque take centre stage, but the line-up is always expansive and varied. In 2018, singer and comedian Em Rusciano presents her show, Difficult Woman, Lea Delaria – who stars in Orange is the New Black as Big Boo – performs her spin on Bowie hits, and party-band The Cat Empire play a set. The festival is held in the CBD at Adelaide Festival Centre, overlooking the River Torrens.

Every July, music fans make the pilgrimage to Byron Bay’s hinterland for Splendour in the Grass. This year, the line-up promises equal parts nostalgia and of-the-moment acts, featuring 00s icons such as Vampire Weekend, Franz Ferdinand and MGMT, as well as Pulitzer Prize winner Kendrick Lamar, lauded singer-songwriter Lorde, and Glaswegian synth-pop stars Chvrches.

Hobart’s annual winter-solstice arts festival leans in to the cold, embracing the long nights of the island state’s capital. Since its launch in 2013, Dark Mofo has grown exponentially, attracting more than 400,000 attendances last year.

“Winter is a time of stillness, beauty and reflection,” says creative director Leigh Carmichael.

“To my knowledge, Dark Mofo is the first Australian festival to look at the deep and emotional connection humans have with the changing seasons and the rhythm of the universe.”

This year, more than 750 artists are participating, and the theme will be “time”. Highlights include a performance by US musician St Vincent, an audio exhibit of the late Lou Reed’s guitars and amps, and a late-night party labyrinth, to name just a few. ● June 7-24, darkmofo.net.au

TRAVEL \ MOUNT KOSCIUSZKO IN ALL SEASONS, AUSTRALIA’S HIGHEST POINT PROVIDES PEAK RELAXATION AND ADVENTURE

A day SNOW SEASON \ From June to October, visitors to Thredbo, Perisher, Charlotte Pass and Selwyn Snow Resort (all inside Kosciuszko National Park) are there to ski.

OFF SEASON \ During the green season Thredbo and Charlotte Pass are the starting points for the climb up Australia’s highest peak: Mount Kosciuszko. Thredbo is a shortcut: the Kosciuszko Express zips walkers up 560 vertical metres in 15 minutes ($37/19/74 adult/child/family return). You still need to walk the 13-kilometre round trip to see the spectacular views from the top (2228m).

BOTH \ Taste-test brews and batches at the new breweries and distilleries around pretty Jindabyne.

Jindabyne Brewing gets rave reviews for its locally-brewed beers and Banjo Paterson Inn makes Kosciuszko Pale Ale in its brewhouse.

Mod-rustic Wildbrumby Schnapps Distillery on the Alpine Way is all about schnapps and gin.

A week SNOW SEASON \ K7 Adventures is not afraid of the snow; they take folk snow shoeing, alpine ski touring up Mount Kosciuszko. Afraid of the snow? Try their snow-survival tour.

OFF SEASON \ BYO camping gear – you can set up camp almost anywhere in Kosciuszko National Park. Rydges Horizons Snowy Mountains in Jindabyne is open year round. Time your visit to correspond with full moon and join Sacred Ride’s “lunar-cy” bike ride. For $80, they’ll drive you to Charlotte Pass, lend you a mountain bike and help you navigate the ascent. Cyclists can moonbathe while sipping local schnapps.

ISTOCK

SNOW SEASON \ Ski at night at Perisher Valley and Smiggin Holes from 6-9pm, Tuesdays and Saturday nights. Enjoy fireworks on Tuesdays.

OFF SEASON \ Hike up Mount Kosciuszko from Charlotte Pass. A sharp turn to the right near the peak leads to a well-marked 22km loop that really shows off the Snowy Mountains: check out the stunning lakes and views of the Alps and walk through wildflower meadows (just as pretty as they sound). Or save this option for the annual Alpine Ascent trail running race: a 25km or 50km event held in March.

BOTH \ In Jindabyne it’s all “high country”. Expect plenty of odes to poet and solicitor Banjo Paterson; sit down for an al-fresco Banjo Beef

ure, joining the dawn parade of early risers would automatically create more “time” in our lives, but is skimping on sleep the most effective way to be, well, more effective?

According to Dr Ron Ehrlich, author of A Life Less Stressed – The Five Pillars of Health and Wellness, you don’t need to give up your slumber in order to make your day feel longer. He believes that reassessing how you spend your day is the key to creating more time for yourself, especially as extra hours are only beneficial if they are used wisely.

INCREASE YOUR SHUT-EYE \ Although

challenging, Ehrlich stresses that putting aside eight solid hours a day for sleep and rejuvenation is “your non-negotiable, built-in life-support system”.

He believes being rested actually helps build the physical, mental and emotional resilience to make the other 16 waking hours of the day more productive. One way to ensure this is use a smart watch or a free app like Sleep Cycle to monitor your sleep pattern, so you can see how many hours you’re sleeping and how you might be able to improve on them.

AUDIT YOUR DAY \ Taking a step back and looking

at how you spend your time is one method for seeing where you could improve your effectiveness.

Don’t forget to consider how you engage with technology. Ehrlich believes that we spend too much time responding to “notifications” on email, social media and news. Instead, he recommends switching

off all notifications so you gain physical time, but also clear your head in order to focus.

Try keeping an hour-by-hour diary, and look for patterns of “dead time” or time-consuming habits.

How could you avoid these in the future?

UNDERSTAND YOUR VALUES \ Working out what’s important to you helps evaluate if you’re spending time on the things that will make you feel satisfied, Ehrlich says. If your week only consists of deadlines and you miss your sister’s birthday dinner, then gaining extra time for work responsibilities won’t make you feel less stressed come Sunday.

Instead, think about what makes you feel happy, healthy and satisfied. Block out time for those things in your diary and keep them in mind when determining if you should say no to invitations and

are set, it’s time to look at your priorities in your day-to-day life. Take a moment to prioritise how you want to spend your waking hours, keeping your values top of mind.

What on your list has to be done today; what can wait until tomorrow; and what can possibly be ignored or even deleted?

Restructure your to-do list in that order, and take a critical look it on a regular basis.

Use this priority ranking to create more “meaningful” time in your life so you can reduce your stress and spend time doing what you value most. ●

Flu myths busted

W

inter is around the corner and so is our flu season. With some experts labelling last year’s epidemic as the worst flu season on record, it’s more important than ever to prevent flu – and to treat it right.

The most obvious ways to combat the flu are often the best ones, according to Dr Trent Yarwood, an infectious-diseases physician. Staying at home when you’re sick, washing your hands and having the flu vaccination all help. But there are plenty of myths circulating, too. Here are his responses to five common misconceptions.

HAVING A COLD IS THE SAME AS HAVING THE FLU \ “Most people don’t get influenza in any

particular year,” Dr Yarwood notes. “But most people

will get a common cold, or more than one. Colds are annoying and can make you feel a bit rubbish for a day or two, but having influenza knocks you about for a week or more.”

ANTIBIOTICS HELP \ “Antibiotics aren’t effective

against influenza, because it’s a virus, and antibiotics work on bacteria,” Dr Yarwood explains.

He notes that anti-virals for influenza are effective, but “they’re just not very effective”.

He says for most people who are otherwise healthy, “there is very little personal benefit – your illness might be a day or so shorter. “For people who are vulnerable – those with lung or other chronic medical problems – they are of benefit, and the earlier they are started the better.”

COLD AND FLU TABLETS DON’T WORK \ The “cold and flu” tablets you can buy over the counter (the ones with phenylephrine in them) are probably no better than just paracetamol.

“If you want one that works, show the pharmacist your driver’s licence and ask specifically for the pseudoephedrine ones,” Dr Yarwood says.

He also notes that some older cold and flu tablets contain codeine, for which you now need a GP’s prescription.

GETTY IMAGES/ISTOCKPHOTO

YOU CAN JUST POWER THROUGH IT \ Going to

work while you’re sick doesn’t just jeopardise your health, but can also risk the health of others, Dr Yarwood notes.

“You need to remember that there might be people in your workplace for whom influenza, or even a cold, could be very serious – for example, people receiving immunosuppression or chemotherapy.”

When it’s not about the price, but about the outcome…

He says the generally accepted advice for people who have influenza is to wait until at least five days after the coughing starts, and you’re no longer having fevers, before returning to work.

THE FLU VACCINE DOESN’T EVEN HELP \ “The

influenza vaccine isn’t a great vaccine,” Dr Yarwood says. “But it’s the best tool we have.”

At best, it “reduces your risk of getting flu by about 60 per cent, but this varies from year to year.

Last year was a big year, and it was probably closer to 30 per cent.”

He advises getting the shot annually, because influenza changes from year to year, so last year’s vaccine may not be effective this year.

“Even though I’ve [already] had the flu this year, I’ll still be getting the vaccine because it protects against multiple strains, and I certainly want to reduce my chances of getting that sick again.” ●

Running out of excuses RESIST HIBERNATING THIS WINTER – AND YOU’LL HEAD INTO WARMER CLIMES WITH A SPRING IN YOUR STEP

I

t’s dark, you’re layered up like the Michelin Man, you can see your breath in the air and you’re not entirely sure if your toes are still there because you can’t feel them. Yep, training in winter can be brutal. But if we’re keeping it real, it can also be the excuse that people are looking for to skip their sessions or eat the hot chips.

This may seem a little abrupt but, trust me, I’ve been doing this for 17 years and I’ve heard it all before. More often than not, the people who don’t get results in winter are the same people who are saying it’s too hot in summer.

So with this in mind, I wrote this article to give you some practical tips on how to make things easier but also to ruffle a few feathers of those of you who go into hibernation when the temperature drops.

EXCUSE: “IT’S TOO HARD IN WINTER” You need

to change your attitude. If you think you can’t get results in winter because too many things are against you, then, guess what? You won’t.

EXCUSE: “IT’S TOO HARD TO EAT HEALTHY WHEN IT’S COLD.” You put on weight when you

overindulge in comfort foods; it has nothing to do with the weather. You don’t need to eat cold salads in order to eat well in the cooler climate. There are

endless healthy options that are hearty, too. Think soups, healthy curries, modified pastas and veggie bakes.

EXCUSE: “I DON’T WANT TO WORK OUT OUTSIDE” We’re living in 2018. There are thousands of indoor options. From doing my 28 program in your lounge room, to spin classes, f45, Pilates … the list goes on. Try a few things until you find something you genuinely enjoy.

EXCUSE: “MY NEXT GOAL ISN’T UNTIL SUMMER”

Why? The best way to ensure you’re in shape for summer is to make sure you don’t go backwards during winter. Don’t train for summer; train for life.

EXCUSE: “IT’S RAINING” I think my dad sums this up best when he says: “Humans don’t rust”. Get some wet-weather gear and get on with it.

Winter isn’t an excuse to take a break. It’s an opportunity to push yourself to be the best that you can be and will test your determination, consistency and commitment.

You’ll never achieve your goals if you keep setting them back. So, write down your aims and keep them somewhere you can see them every day, and let them push you through winter so you head into spring two steps ahead. ●

DONNA L AUGHLIN SPECIAL PROMOTION

D

onna Laughlin was inspired by her own educational experiences (and teachers) to become a teacher herself. She has been at Siena College for 10 years, recently taking on the role as Leader of Pedagogy, where she seeks to inspire teachers in their craft and students in their learning.

One of my best memories was being part of the year 10 EIS (Eastern Independent Schools) softball grand final winning team. I was catcher and, with the team, orchestrated a double play to get two players out in one play in the final innings. Our hard work at training and all combining together enabled us to win the trophy that year. Within the classroom, another favourite memory was my love of studying Pride and Prejudice (in year 11 literature) and the entertaining and engaging class discussions at John Paul College covering love, marriage, and the humour of Jane Austen.

WHEN DID YOU START TEACHING?

WHEN YOU WERE AT SCHOOL, WHAT TYPE OF

I started my career in 1995 at Salesian College in Chadstone.

D O N N A L AU G H LI N

WHAT (OR WHO) INSPIRED YOU TO BECOME A TEACHER?

My grade 5 teacher at St John’s Primary School Mrs Anstey, who took the time to build relationships with her students. She seemed to just know when something was wrong and helped me greatly to understand how to deal with the challenges of moving schools. In secondary school I was blessed with many enthusiastic teachers who were passionate about their craft and their area of expertise. I enjoyed strong relationships with many of my teachers, including my maths teacher Mr Sanders, who I was lucky enough to have for three of my six years of schooling. He was an older teacher who came across as a “grump” but who, like Mrs Anstey, took the time to build relationships with all his students.

WHAT ARE YOU READING AT THE MOMENT?

STUDENT WERE YOU?

I loved school. I loved the learning, I loved the interaction and the relationships built with the teachers and I enjoyed engaging with new information. I was sporty, studious and enthusiastic but someone who did not want the spotlight for myself.

GREG BRIGGS

WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE SCHOOL MEMORY?

WHAT WAS YOUR FIRST DAY OF CLASS AS A TEACHER LIKE?

Nerve-racking, challenging, invigorating and exhausting but it confirmed this is where I wanted to be. On the advice of the year level coordinator I had learnt the “naughty” student’s name so, when he acted up in the first two minutes, I was able to refer to him by name and tell him to stop. It stunned him and others and gave me kudos with him immediately. Even though it was initially done as a control strategy, it actually formed the basis of my teaching approach. Learning student names and forming a connection with them to assist them to best achieve is the core. The individual is important.

The Silk Roads – A New History of the World by Peter Frankopan, looking at history through the lens of the Middle East.

WHAT DO YOU LOVE ABOUT WORKING IN ALLGIRLS’ EDUCATION?

I love the opportunity to see girls demonstrate a confidence that I never had until I was much older, that is inspiring. Also to continue to impart the joy that I was able to experience while I was at school through building relationships with the students that I teach and many that I just meet throughout my day. To ignite a desire to learn and know that I am making a difference in the life of young women.

ocated in a calm pocket of High Street near sought-after amenities, Allegra’s larger layouts, opulent finishes and generous garden terraces are designed for local downsizers and professionals.

Melbourne architects Ewert Leaf have given the north-facing four-storey building an appealing, asymmetrical facade with operable metal louvered shutters and integrated garden planters.

Landscape architect John Patrick has designed the gardens and terraces, incorporating existing mature trees while individual residences have eight to 154 square metres of outdoor space. Inside, the 28 residences have two- and three-bedroom layouts of 90 to 160 square metres with a wide array of larger home features.

Marshall White Projects director Mark Dayman says Ewert Leaf have become synonymous with luxury living in Stonnington and Boroondara. “The design and location mean buyers can be confident they will be among like-minded people.”

All apartments have two on-ground car spaces and storage in the secure basement levels. ● LIZ MCLACHLAN

here’s no tiresome upstairs-downstairs action in this classic Edwardian home: this four-bedroom house is kept conveniently to one level. It has a Scotish connection in its name, Kiltearn, and all the hallmarks of Edwardian style, including a red brick facade, timber fretwork and art nouveau leadlight windows. Last renovated in 2005, when an extension was added to the rear, this house has plenty of living space for modern family life.

All three bedrooms at the front of the home have large windows and open fireplaces embellished in aqua, mauve, green and burgundy tiles. They share a family bathroom, which adjoins a laundry. One of the bedrooms has access to a roof storage space, while the other two have bay windows that would suit reading chairs or dressing tables. Double doors lead to the social areas of the house, including a carpeted dining room and lounge, which has gas fireplace and corniced ceiling.

Sliding doors connect this room to a casual meals area and U-shaped kitchen. It has stone benchtops and two picture windows – one looking out to the private courtyard and another to a night-lit water feature. The outdoor space is paved and low-maintenance, and it leads through bi-fold doors to a family living room on one side and the lightfilled main bedroom on the other. Easy access makes the living areas at the back of the house feel very open and welcoming. It has timber floors, as with all the rooms on this side of the house, as well as an en suite and walk-in wardrobe. Other features include hydronic heating, an airconditioner in the family room, ducted vacuum and a garden shed. There is off-street parking for one car in the front driveway.

A short walk to the end of Allenby Road is Burke Road, where you can take a tram ride or walk to Camberwell’s shopping precinct, train station, cinema and famed Camberwell Sunday Market. The home is also walking distance to Camberwell Grammar School, Camberwell Girls Grammar and the popular Outer Circle Rail Trail popular with runners and cyclists. ● KATE STANTON property@domain.com.au

Catch glimpses of lush green landscaping through every window of this four-bedroom house, set back on a 627-squaremetre plot near Koonung Creek Trail. The garden surrounds make this classic family home feel so secluded you’ll forget you’re conveniently close to the Eastern Freeway.

The house begins with a large entry hall, which leads past three bedrooms and a family bathroom. The main bedroom opposite has an en suite, walk-in wardrobe and open gas fireplace. Carrara marble benchtops and splashback set off the open-plan kitchen, which has a 900-millimetre Ilve dual-fuel stove, and looks out to the living room. Sliding doors connect the formal dining room to the family space, and both rooms look out to the covered deck.

Gardeners will love the magical backyard, which has raised vegetable beds, stone paving and an ivy-covered shed. A basement-level multi-purpose room can be used as a home office or gym. There is off-street parking for two cars in the front driveway. ● KATE STANTON AGENT \ Fletchers 9841 5788 PRICE \ $1.7 million – $1.87 million AUCTION \ June 2 at 11am

The dark cladding and brick facade of this house give it a hip, industrial edge rare for Hawthorn East. Designed by JMA Architects and Lauren McKillop Concepts, the newly-built home has a six-star energy rating, due to sustainable elements such as double-glazing and an underground water tank.

The ground floor includes an open-plan kitchen, which has integrated Miele appliances and quartz benchtops, and a living area with an open fireplace, timber accent wall and full-height sliding doors to the outdoor terrace and garden. There’s also a powder room and extra deck.

Close to Como Park and Toorak village, Bruce Street has the best of an esteemed neighbourhood within a quick walk. This solid-brick Edwardian is similarly straight to the point: three double bedrooms, open-plan living and a deck above a north-facing courtyard are the goodies everyone loves. The bedrooms have corniced high ceilings and leadlight windows, and two have fireplaces.

The main bedroom has an en suite. Scrubbed pine floorboards shore up the sunny elegance of the living/dining area, whose full-length windows frame a garden outlook. Though the principal rooms are on one level, there’s a lower ground floor with a patio and laundry. ● ALISON BARCLAY

Built in 1992, Bellano has proved the worth of its classical style – and the good sense of putting a garden on the roof. This two-storey penthouse has a glass-walled rumpus room and bar opening to a huge private terrace and synthetic lawn with a 270-degree view. The main floor has three terraces; one opens off the main living/dining area and faces east, promising a glorious backdrop to dinner parties. The media lounge, meals room and granite kitchen with Gaggenau appliances complete the spacious, warm-toned communal areas.

This fascinating property guards its secrets well. Neighbours could stroll past its high front hedge and never suspect there was a 15-metre pool just behind it, nor a wide, glass-fenced deck that turns the front lounge into a waterside paradise.

The single-level, 40-square house was built in 1970. A renovation has brought it right up to date without spoiling its unique layout, which unfurls in airy style around a central octagonal garden.

The flow moves from a media room, rumpus and gym (opening to a pergola) to a huge living and dining area with a fireplace, and in an adjacent wing, two bedrooms, bathroom and laundry. The white stone kitchen opens to a barbecue kitchenette.

There is a study or fourth bedroom, lounge, powder room, and finally, the main bedroom, which has a new en suite and walk-in wardrobe.

The octagonal garden is bristling with native plants and has an outdoor sound system. The property has monitored security and remote-controlled gates. ● ALISON BARCLAY AGENT \ Kay & Burton 9820 1111 PRICE \ $4.8 million – $5.2 million EXPRESSIONS OF INTEREST \ Close June 6 at 5pm

Of a size rare in Prahran, this born-again Victorian seems positively Malvernesque. The garden is leafy and north-facing, with a terrace entwined by a kiwi-fruit vine – the focal point of a spectacular re-design by Rothelowman that has almost doubled the house’s floorspace. The four original rooms are now bedrooms, the main and second with en suites and french doors to a courtyard. Linking the old and new is the kitchen, sleek in stone and timber, with its own courtyard. A bluestone fireplace warms the contemporary living/dining area, which has full-length glass sliders to the terrace. ● ALISON BARCLAY

If you like the classical French facade of this three-level home, with its wrought-iron gate and elegant front garden, you’ll love the grand timber staircase and chandeliers inside. There’s also a guest suite, home office, sitting room, laundry, powder room and theatre room. Double doors lead to the open-plan Miele kitchen and living area with gleaming travertine tile flooring. The space looks out to a large dining terrace and solar-heated pool. The six-car garage downstairs adjoins a rumpus room and wine cellar. Upstairs there are four more bedrooms, all with walk-in wardrobes, and three bathrooms. ● KATE STANTON
