Robbery Under Arms is a 1907 Australian film based on the popular novel. It was from the team of J and N Tait and Millard Johnson and W Gibson, who had just made The Story of the Kelly Gang.
Contents
It is considered a lost film.
Another version of the book came out the same year, which was filmed in Sydney.
This has led to some confusion as to whether the Tait-Johnson-Gibson film even existed.
Plot
According to a contemporary newspaper report, " All the incidents of the romantic bushranger Starlight are enacted, from the first incident, the branding of stolen cattle, to the "Last stand of Starlight and the Marston boys."
Production
The film was completed by October 1907. It was shot in Melbourne
