"Priscilla", along with other contemporary Australian films "Young Einstein" (1988), "Sweetie" (1989), "Strictly Ballroom" (1992), and "Muriel's Wedding" (1994), provided Australian cinema with a reputation for "quirkiness", "eccentricity" and "individuality" across the world. Both "Priscilla" and "Muriel's Wedding" (which had also featured a soundtrack containing ABBA songs) in particular became cult classics, not only in their native Australia, but also in the United Kingdom, where a wave of Australian influences, such as the soap operas "Neighbours" and "Home & Away", had made their mark in the late 1980s and early 1990s.
