A Town Like Alice
The hardship of being a prisoner of war can not be imagined, for a woman it must be a particular HELL, with the differnce of men & woman in POW camps one can not but imagin what they went thru. With this film it brings home the hardship of how the Japanese saw how woman fitted in with their ideals of the world, one can only look at this film and realy feel pity for the likes of the true persons that this film depicts.Although this film is a fictional story of women being taken prisoner by the Japanese forces during the 2nd world war, this story does have grains of truth in it.If one looks up other stories of the same elk than you will see that "The Town Like Alice" is a true story of courage of women during WAR.And yes there was no womens prisoner of war camps as sutch, not untill later in ...

This film makes you look at women in a new light, it certainly made me see women differently after watching it!!.

I loved the book and remembered seeing the film when it first came out! There have been a TV mini series since which I also watched and I was feeling a bit nostalgic when I saw the original in black and white on ebay. The black and white is not a problem, in fact I prefer it to the hand tinted versions that can be found of old black and white films. I was a little disappointed that the film was not more faithful to the book. I had not remembered that the final part of the book which shows life in Australia after the Second World War and the emergence of a prosperous small country town is largely ignored by the film. Still a worthwhile exercise in nostalgia!I loved the book and remembered seeing the film when it first came out!

This is a particularly favourite old movie of mine, which I wanted to be able to see again at my leasure, I looked on EBay on the off chance that it had been put on to a DVD, sure enough, there it was, so I purchased it. The picture quality was good and so I have no regrets in buying it.
