	DVD.net : Cosi - DVD Review
		The basic premise of Cosi is uni-dropout wannabe-director Lewis (Ben Mendelsohn), who gets his first ‘real job’ in a very long time - an assignment to direct a stage play, with the actors being a group of interns in an asylum.
		The backdrop of the movie is a theme of love and fidelity, addressed by the material of the selected play and reflected in the life of our bemused director, his exceptionally seedy friend and his remarkably patient girlfriend.
		Ben Mendelsohn is adequate as the hopeless Lewis.

		Across the street, Ben Mendelsohn sits on his verandah, plays his compositions and becomes increasingly intrigued by his little neighbour who sees, but can not - or will not - communicate.
		Griffiths, Mendelsohn and their gem of a leading lady walk a potentially maudlin line with mercifully understated empathy.
		Among the amusing array of neighbors is a musician (Ben Mendelsohn) who accidentally discovers Amy can communicate after all, but only through song.

	Greg King's movie reviews
		There is a lack of pretension about Mendelsohn as he discusses his brilliant career as one of the finest local actors of his generation.
		Idiot Box is a deliberately challenging and confronting "in your face" urban drama that further explores that sense of alienation and despair experienced by unemployed and semi-literate adolescents looking for some outlet through which they can express their anger and aggression, a theme common to many Australian films of the past few years.
		Since finishing work on Idiot Box Mendelsohn has done a couple of television dramas, a monologue for the ABC, and appeared with Noah Taylor in True Love And Chaos, the new film from producer Stavros Adonis Efthymiou, who is currently riding high on the success of his winning low budget feature Love And Other Catastrophes.

	dOc DVD Review: Idiot Box (1996)
		Kev (Mendelsohn) and Mick (Sims) are two lazy, unemployed friends who still live with their parents.
		The performances are good across the board, but I admit I did have some troubling making out the dialogue through the thick Aussie accents.
		Mendelsohn is a charismatic lead, and he fits well the role of fiery, barely controlled ringleader Kev.

		Kev (Ben Mendelsohn) is on the dole, and very angry.
		Some talented actors are left stranded: Ben Mendelsohn, for example, is much better utilised in Caesar’s next (and best) film, Mullet.
		Granted the interviewees are most likely under contract not to be disparaging about the film they’ve made, but the gulf between their claims for Idiot Box and the final film is yawningly wide.

		“Mullet” is also the nickname of Eddie Maloney (Ben Mendelsohn), who has spent a few years in the city but comes home unexpectedly to the sleepy fishing village of Coollawarra.
		Eddie is played with enough edge by Ben Mendelsohn to keep sentimentality at bay, and he doesn’t always do the right thing, but by the end there’s hope for the future.
		The supporting cast is very strong too, with Susie Porter a particular standout as a woman torn between the man she once loved and the man she now does love.

		Duigan's tough, quirky and often raw exploration of a rights-of-passage tale features shining performances from Noah Taylor, Loene Carmen and Ben Mendelsohn.
		Duigan's greatest strength is that he never condescends to his characters' emotions; adolescence is a poetic season, a time of excess when feelings run out of control - a mood intensified by the constraints of the small town setting surrounded by the ravishingly stark Southern Tablelands of New South Wales.
		Winner of Best Film, Best Direction, Best Screenplay and Best Supporting Actor (for Ben Mendelsohn) at the AFI Awards in 1987.
