To celebrate the centennial of the Lawrence arrival at Gordon Road I have tried to piece together some of the history of the Lawrence family and the farm.

 Tales of the tribe by Lawrence Jones | New Zealand Listener
He worked as a journalist and as scriptwriter and director for documentary films and was part of the young bohemian literary community in Wellington from 1955 until he went to England in 1957, stopping in China, the USSR and Bulgaria on the way, a "last purging" of his inherited communist sympathies.
He has said that he began "in antagonistic reaction" to the classic Sargeson story, determined to move away from New Zealand's "puritan underside, and the Depression", and deal with "the New Zealand in which [he] was living".
His focus in these works was primarily upon the artist, for, as he said in 1973, he thought New Zealand society was at a point where "the artistic sensibility not only stands for the national sensibility: in the absence of anything else coherent, it virtually is the national sensibility".

 Electronic Journal of Australian and New Zealand History:
For many years New Zealanders were amongst the most frequent movie goers in the western world, but few of the films they went to see were made at home.
The absence of any discussion of New Zealanders' film-going habit, the pervasive influence of Hollywood genres on the feature films that were made in New Zealand, the impact of other leisure forms on film making, all seem worthy of discussion.
While New Zealand Film fills in some of the gaps, there is still a need for more analytical work on the development and history of film making in New Zealand.
