Wiki.
The True Story of Eskimo Nell (retitled Dick Down Under in the United Kingdom) is a 1975 Australian western comedy film produced, directed, and written by Richard Franklin, and starring Max Gillies as Deadeye Dick and Serge Lazareff as Mexico Pete. This was the first film produced by Richard Franklin.Based on and inspired by the bawdy Ballad of Eskimo Nell, which had actually been banned in Australia, with Deadeye Dick and Mexico Pete setting forth through the Australian Outback in search of the infamous prostitute, Eskimo Nell.
The film features large amounts of full frontal nudity which was one of the main attractions of the film at the time.
The film was part of the Australian New Wave, with most of the film being shot in Ballarat and some in Canada.
