"Fatty Finn" is a 1980 Australian film, directed by Maurice Murphy and starring Ben Oxenbould with Rebecca Rigg.

Plot

Set in inner-city Woolloomooloo in Sydney, New South Wales, in 1930, the neighbourhood nice guys are led by Fatty (real name Hubert Finn), an abititious 10 year old with an eye for making a quid. From shady frog jumping contests to a fixed goat race, Fatty uses his enterprise to raise enough money to buy a crystal set (wireless radio) that's worth seventeen shillings & sixpence (17/6), more than his Dad earns in a year. Bruiser Murphy the bully and his gang try to stop him. All the way to the hilarious ending it's brains against brawn as Fatty tries to triumph over the tough guys.
