Oddly enough, considering John Denver was born on December 31st, this movie takes place on December 31st in the Sydney Opera House, four years before John would marry Cassandra in real life.
They would divorce in 1993 and John would die when his plane crashed into the ocean in 1997.
Which makes this scene from the movie below with planes trapped in a spiderweb, while Cassandra is dressed as the Red Queen playing strip poker with an American sailor, another Aussie bloke and her friend who is dressed as Alice in Wonderland, pretty spooky.

'One Night Stand' was released in 1984 and has some of the worst acting you will ever see in a "mainstream" movie.
The main reason I watched it was because in 1984 I was 20 years old and I can remember growing up with the threat of nuclear war and total destruction of the planet hanging over our heads, seemingly from day to day, according to the media experts.
Things really haven't changed all that much for 20-year-olds growing up in 2020, have they?
Now it's a double banger with "climate change" and nuclear war threatening to destroy the planet.

I had been on a Richard Bach reading binge before watching this movie, and I had also just watched a DVD of 'Jonathan Livingston Seagull'.
How Prophetic Was Jonathan Livingston Seagull?
What I liked about 'One Night Stand' was the synchromystic eeriness of watching this movie in 2019 knowing what I now know about the events that would transpire from 1984 onward.
But I didn't know just how bad the bushfires would turn out to be a month on from watching that movie.

Chris Knowles from 'The Secret Sun' blog might find it interesting that the writer/director of 'One Night Stand', John Duigan, also wrote, directed and starred in the movie 'Sirens'.
Just keep swimming?
