Mark II is a 1986 New Zealand made drama written by Mike Walker and directed by John Anderson.
Three MÃÂori youths, friends Eddie, Kingi and Matthew head south from Auckland to Wellington in a two-tone Mark II Ford Zephyr. Two of them were unaware they're being pursued by a van-load of vengeful thugs due to Kingi's drug debts. The writer Mike Walker, describes the film as a "Polynesian Goodbye Pork Pie".
Barry Shaw of the New Zealand Herald said, Mark II is a testament to his (director John Anderson) belief that the best television drama in New Zealand will come only from our roots, not from transplants from America, Britain or Australia."
The film was recognised at the 1987 Listener GOFTA Awards where it won the Best Single Drama award, and Mitchell Manuel's performance as Kingi won Best Male Performance in a Dramatic Role.
