The Rage In Placid Lake (2003)

"The Rage in Placid Lake" is an offbeat Australian coming-of-age comedy-drama that follows a young misfit trying to reconcile his idealistic upbringing with the compromises of adult life. Rose Byrne co-stars in the film, bringing an early, effortlessly natural presence to a story built on suburban satire and quiet rebellion. Fans hunting for her lesser-seen work will want to check the 2 scenes collected here, which catch her baring skin in a couple of unguarded, revealing bits that stand out against the film's otherwise wry tone. It's a small but worthwhile entry for anyone tracking Byrne's filmography back to its roots.
