Magazine from Sydney, Australia
Ceased publication

- First and last issue: 1970-2004

- Editor: John Reid.
- Started as Australian Film Guide.
- 54 issues were published from 1970 to 1979.
- After an interruption of 8 years, a new series started in 1987.
- 63 volumes/"reference books" of the 2nd series were published in Australia.
- Volumes 1 to 12 were in hardback with dust jackets; Volumes 13-63 had perfect-bound/soft covers.
- Every volume/issue covers a theme with synopsis, reviews, cast lists, info and notes for every film.
- In 2004, Lulu Books in the USA started publishing new volumes (now called "Reid's Movie Data").
- A5 format (A4 since issue #64); around 200 pages.
