‘Sunshine Sally’ is a perceptive and professional portrayal of the life-style and characters of the working-class area of Sydney known as the ‘Loo (Woolloomooloo) and the luxurious houses and spacious gardens of the rich Sydney area of Potts Point. Following the story of the spirited Sally who works in a sweatshop, the ‘White Star Laundry’, the film introduces us to Sally’s best friend Tottie and their larrikin friends, Skinny Smith and Spud Murphy. Sally’s family origins are unknown and when she is rescued from the surf at Coogee by bronzed lifesaver Basil Stanton, she becomes involved with Basil and his mother’s rich and cultured lifestyle.
