The movie, Mad Max, as shown on cable, seems to be dubbed into
'American'. I've seen it on both HBO and the Movie Channel with this
dubbing. To confirm this, just listen to Mel Gibson's voice in Mad
Max. Does the movie exist in the US without this dubbing, i.e. with
the original 'Australian' language? Watching the dubbed Mad Max is
rather grating on the nerves! They must use the same voices that are
used to dub spaghetti westerns! Thanks.

No. It's a reflection on both vagaries of international distribution and
on clout George Miller had at the time of the original release. Perhaps
you should call Qantas...
G'Day!
