With its rugged good looks and effortless quirks, Australia was always destined for the screen. The country's pristine beaches, scorching deserts and eclectic cities have set the scene for a string of soaps, TV series and films, from homegrown cult hits to Hollywood blockbusters.
澳大利亞一直以來都給大家一種粗礦不羈的感覺，澳洲也因為這種獨特的地貌和文化多次被搬上大屏幕。澳洲美麗的海岸線，酷熱的沙漠和國際化的大都市曾經多次成為好萊塢電影以及澳洲和國際電視劇，肥皂劇的取景地。
The world's first full-length feature film, The Story of the Kelly Gang, was shot in Melbourne in 1906 and today the city remains home to Australia's longest-running TV series, Neighbours, which began in 1985. The soap's world-famous Ramsay Street is actually Pin Oak Court, an unassuming cul-de-sac in suburban Vermont South, and a pit stop on backpacker rite of passage Neighbours Tours.
世界上第一部長篇劇情類電影《凱利幫的故事》是由導演Charles Tait於1906年在墨爾本完成攝製的，直到現在都還是澳洲放映時間最長的肥皂劇。也是從1985年開始放映的《鄰居 Neighbours》的拍攝地。在這個肥皂劇裡的標誌性地點Ramsay大街事實上是墨爾本Pine Oak Court，位於墨爾本Vermont南區一個小衚衕裡。

Evocative beach scenes blur into fantasy in Where the Wild Things Are, the 2009 Spike Jonze film that makes great use of Victoria’s misty light in locations such as Gembrook (terminus of the Puffing Billy steam train), the wind-whipped coastline of Flinders and further west, rock-climbing mecca Mt Arapiles.
2009年電影《野獸家園》中的海邊取景也是在距離墨爾本不遠的地方，比如Gembrook，Flinders和Arapiles山地。
A 70km drive northwest of central Melbourne leads you to the ancient volcanic boulders of Hanging Rock, setting of Peter Weir's haunting film Picnic at Hanging Rock (1975). Fauna including wallabies, koalas, kookaburras and wedge-tailed eagles are an untamed setting for this true story of missing schoolgirls. Foxtel has revisited the story and its spooky location for a television series starring Natalie Dormer (Margaery Tyrell in Game of Thrones) released in May 2018.
如果你從墨爾本出發再向北開70公里到達Hanging Rock火山岩區，這裡就是1975年Peter Weir指導的恐怖片《懸崖下的野餐》取景地。這裡有各種植物，動物，比如袋鼠、考拉、歡笑鳥和鷹，使得這個地方非常適合這部電影的恐怖主題。最近澳洲的網絡電視公司foxtel重新編寫了劇本，由權力遊戲演員娜塔莉·多莫領銜出演的新版《懸崖下的野餐》已經於2018年5月上映了。

It's from Sydney's Manhattan-esque central business district makes a futuristic backdrop in sci-fi action film The Matrix(1999), including the fountain in Martin Place, while sprawling Centennial Park moonlights as Gatsby's Estate in Baz Luhrmann's The Great Gatsby (2013). The park itself draws cinephiles each summer for Moonlight Cinema, held from mid-December to late March.

A short 1160km drive west of Sydney will bring you to the rough-and-tumble mining town Broken Hill, its garishly hued Palace Hotel also featured in Priscilla. More than half of the film was shot in and around the town, including the Mundi Mundi Plains, an epic, rust-hued sweep of outback 29km to the north. The Plains were also used in post-apocalyptic Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior (1981), a fact not lost on the nearby mining town of Silverton, which claims a dedicated Mad Max 2 Museum. Actually, the latest instalment of the series is also filmed in Australia.
從悉尼出發，向西開車1160公里你將會到達一個粗礦的礦工城市Broken Hill，這個小城市是我們之前說到過的電影《沙漠妖姬》的取景地之一，事實上電影的一半以上都是在這個小城裡拍攝的，Mundi平原也在這部電影中出現過。這個銅鏽顏色的廣闊沙漠曾經是1981年電影《瘋狂的麥克斯2》的取景地，在它隔壁的礦業小城Sliverton還有一個瘋狂的麥克斯博物館。其實，這個系列中最新電影《狂暴之路》也是在澳洲拍攝的。

Meanwhile in Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park, the red dirt is almost a character in itself. It's in Uluru's shadow that Meryl Streep plays real-life Lindy Chamberlain in Evil Angels (A Cry in the Dark) (1988), about a woman wrongly accused of murdering her infant. The soaring sandstone formation was also set to make a cameo in Priscilla, but the refusal of a shooting permit saw it substituted with the vertiginous red wonder of Kings Canyon, wedged between Uluru and Alice Springs.
同時，在澳洲著名的艾爾斯巖國家公園，呈天然紅色的土壤是當地吸引眾多導演的特色天然條件。這裡曾經是Meryl Streep1988年領銜主演電影《暗夜哭聲》的取景地點，這個電影講述了一個婦女被誤判謀殺自己嬰兒的故事。《沙漠妖姬》的劇組也曾經考慮將這裡選為拍攝地點之一，但是因為行程方面的問題，沒有成功申請，導致這個計劃最終擱淺，轉到Kings Canyon，一個在艾爾斯巖和Alice Springs之間的位置拍攝。

Hamilton Island, as a gateway to the Great Barrier Reef, this well developed island stands in for the Bahamas in Hollywood adventure-romance Fool's Gold (2008) starring Matthew McConaughey. In the same film, Key West is actually the North Queensland resort town of Port Douglas. Known for the sandy sweep of its Four Mile Beach, the town saw more clapperboard clicks with the shooting of Pirates of the Caribbean 5 in 2015.
漢密爾頓島作為到達大堡礁的一個重要中轉站，曾經出現在了馬修·麥康納瑞主演的2008年電影《淘金俏冤家》，有趣的是這個島在電影中扮演了巴哈馬群島。在這部電影中，Key West的取景地其實是昆士蘭的另一個度假小城道格拉斯港。這個小城因它綿延數公里的海灘而馳名，同時它也是2015年的電影《加勒比海盜5》的取景地。
