He may resemble Father Christmas but Bill Williams is more like the Angel of Death in 2011's The Telegram Man. Bill (a masterfully understated performance by Jack Thompson) is a postman in an Australian country town during World War II. He's become a social pariah as his job entails delivering telegrams to inform families that a loved one has been killed in the war.
