Down Under was great. Haven't heard from the Monkey Woman, but then I've been slack and not emailed her either!
BTW, a movie came out while I was down there called "Paperback Hero". It was about a truck-driver who wrote a romance novel -- and sold it under a woman friend's name. When the publisher wants her to publicity, err, hilarity ensues.
*Anyway* in the credits was:
Cafe Drinker: Stephen Collins ...
but that's not all, I spotted the credit right after I'd said: "That was a Gold Monkey ending".
Why? Because the two protaganists were arguing over whether one bark meant yes or no. And the dog -- (a bluey, I think -- it's an Aussie sheepdog) -- had his say in the matter too! (It was definitely a he, called "Lance")
Anyway, very cool movie -- with a GM twist at the end. Oh, and the heroine couldn't sing either *grin*. (The hero could -- but then he's done the musical theatre thing -- Hugh Jackman is his name)
