Cheeky Freak Of The Week: Ben Mendelsohn

Posted by: Tristan Ceddia


This weeks Cheeky Freak is incredible Australian actor Ben Mendelsohn. Ben plays Andrew ‘Pope’ Cody in Animal Kingdom, the film that won the World Cinema Jury Prize at this years Sundance film festival. I had the pleasure of seeing this film earlier this week at a Popcorn Taxi screening and it knocked my socks off. Mendelsohn should win an award for his performance and thats all I am going to say. Animal Kingdom is out in cinemas as of next Thursday. Go see it.

Saturday night in Sydney, head to Phoenix Bar for the always energetic Halfway Crooks. 34 Oxford St, Darlinghurst from 10pm, $10. Download Levins rap party mix here…
