The Screen Guide

FINDING ELLIOT - a remarkable dinosaur story is about the discovery of Australia's biggest ever dinosaur through the eyes of a true blue Aussie sheep farmer who stumbled on a large and very mysterious bone. The story is also told through the eyes of a band of dinosaur devotees who gave up their annual vacation and paid big money for a unique adventure to unearth it. In a first for Australia, heavy earth moving equipment was used to burrow into the top two metres of black soil, where paleontologists believed they would find the rest of Elliot. What they found both delighted and bewildered them.
