Mr. Reliable 1996

Based on a true 1960s Australian incident, ex‑convict Wally Mellish seeks a quiet life with his partner Beryl and their child. A visit from two police officers spirals into a siege, with armed officers surrounding their home under the mistaken belief that Wally holds hostages. The standoff turns into a media circus, unintentionally making Wally a symbol for the anti‑war movement, even as friends share a backyard BBQ.
