Synopsis
Danny Deckchair (2003) is an Australian comedy you can watch online on iFILM, directed by Jeff Balsmeyer. Rhys Ifans stars as Danny; Miranda Otto plays Glenda, the town's parking officer.
Danny Morgan drives a cement truck in suburban Sydney. His girlfriend is scheming behind his back, his holiday keeps falling through, and one afternoon he's done with all of it. He ties a bunch of helium balloons to a garden deck chair and actually lifts off. A thunderstorm drops him in the quiet northern town of Clarence, where nobody knows his name or his past and he reinvents himself fast.
Loosely adapted from a real incident. The film is unpretentious, but Ifans holds it together — his Danny is exactly ridiculous enough that rooting for him comes naturally. Stream Danny Deckchair online on iFILM.
