The Big Deal is a 1961 Australian TV play shot in Melbourne.[1]
A worked at a plastics factory (Don Crosby) dreams of being a millionaire.
The critic from the Sydney Morning Herald thought the play was "neither comical, subtle, ironic, nor in fact even,remotely entertaining" having "no plot worthy of the name, and its theme, tenuous to say the least, gained nothing from the hourlong treatment" with "dialogue of unrelieved stodginess, produced without imagination, dramatic sense or photographic skill."[2]
