Dear Cardholder is a 1987 Australian film about a man who gets into debt on his credit cards.Ed. Scott Murray, Australia on the Small Screen 1970-1995, Oxford Uni Press, 1996 p41 The film failed to find a cinema release, and its director, Bill Bennett, thinks that he made a mistake in not making the film funny enough or its protagonist sufficiently sympathetic.
