'Cunnamulla' is a beautifully bleak portrait of a lonely town in which people are leading lives of sort of quiet desperation. Louis Theroux beautifullybleakcunnamulla Change image and share on social
As much as the glasses, it's the Englishness and the gangliness. The apparent lack of muscularity... they indicate I'm not a macho man. Louis Theroux apparentenglishnessgangliness Change image and share on social
