Hari Huritau to Ian Mune today! 🎉
Actor. Writer. Director. Art director. Mune has never been one to wear just one hat.
To mark the occasion, we're revisiting one of the defining moments in his remarkable career: ‘Sleeping Dogs’.
Mune didn't just co-star in the landmark 1977 film. He also helped adapt the screenplay from CK Stead's novel Smith's Dream and worked as one of the film's art directors — a true reflection of the all-hands-on-deck spirit that helped shape New Zealand's early film industry.
🎥 Explore more than six decades of Ian Mune's work in The Ian Mune Collection, featuring films, television, interviews, and more at NZ On Screen.
