The Love Letters from Teralba Road

The Love Letters from Teralba Road is a 1977 Australian short film directed by Stephen Wallace. In 1980 David Stratton called it not only the most moving love story given to us by the Australian cinema, but also probably the best featurette of the decade.

Wallace found a number of letters in a Sydney flat in 1972 which had been written by a man living in Newcastle in 1959. He had beaten up his wife, who subsequently moved to Sydney, and was asking for her forgiveness. Wallace drew from these to write and direct the short film. The film is Bryan Browns screen debut.The budget was provided in part by the Creative Development Branch of the Australian Film Commission. ........
