| Sumario: | Remember Ronald Ryan introduces us to the last felon to be executed on Australian soil. Dickins portrays the man behind the legend as lovable, cheeky, wretched, despicable and, above all, courageous. After forty years, his guilt in the shooting of a prison warder remains in doubt. A victim of his times, himself and political pressure, Ryan never stood a chance. Long freed by the hangman's noose, he lives again thanks to the spirit, vitality and tenderness of Barry Dickins' pen. Includes the one man, one act monologue, Ryan. |
