Cinema of the Antipodes - GC4RQVR - is my most popular cache so far. So I've decided to make a very similar puzzle cache for those who love Australian films and Australian actors (and mystery geocaches!).
The names of thirty Australian (or mostly Australian) movies are given below in pairs. In each case, all vowels, spaces and punctuation symbols have been removed from the film titles, and all letters capitalised. All instances of the letter Y have also been removed. The word 'The' has been removed from the start of the film titles, but it has not been removed if it appears (as TH) later in the film title.
To solve the puzzle and find the cache, you need to find an Aussie (or mostly Aussie?) actor (male or female) who appears in both titles in each pair. (Both film titles appear on the same line, separated by a comma and space.) Then follow the second part of each clue.
Sometimes I've added in brackets an extra film or two, modified according to the rules above. Mostly the films in brackets are NOT Australian films. They are there to provide more certainty about who the actor is - a double-check mechanism of sorts.

At GZ you are looking for a lime green bison hanging in a tree. When I placed the cache, lots of friendly/curious animals came to say hi. You might see them too.
