Grandad Rudd was the second entry in Australian filmmaker Ken G. Hall's brief but popular "Rudd Family" series. Local comedy favorite Bert Bailey stars as Granddad Rudd, a truculent and highly combative Aussie rancher. The story is minimal, merely a series of comic episodes linked together by Granddad's unique political views. The screenplay was adapted from a stage piece co-written by star Bailey and Steele Rudd. This modestly entertaining effort was regarded as a major improvement on the first Rudd pic, On Our Selection.
