''[[Judy and Punch]]'' is a 2019 Australian film written and directed by [[Mirrah Foulkes]] which retells the plot of the puppet show as a black comedy-drama. It stars [[Damon Herriman]] as "Punch" and [[Mia Wasikowska]] as "Judy". The film first premiered at the 2019 [[Sundance Film Festival]]. The plot reimagines the classic puppet show as a revenge tale, in which Judy and Punch are married puppeteers in the fictional town of Seaside, with a popular show about themselves. Following the traditional element of the show, Punch's carelessness leads to the death of their baby, prompting a fight between him and Judy. Having been thought dead after Punch's beating, Judy survives with the help of village outcasts and decides to enact her revenge on her husband, who has scapegoated their servants. The film took Best Original Music Score and Best Actor (Herriman) at the 9th [[AACTA Awards]], and had seven other nominations.
