Can anyone tell me why Bronte doesn’t just marry Phil instead of marrying a stranger? If she truly wants to help out George then I can understand, but she doesn’t know him or even like him. Why would you marry someone you don’t know anything about just to buy a greenhouse apartment? The rest of the film is fine but this plot line is unrealistic., illogical and irrational.

one of my all time fav films, stellar cast and wonderful direction by outstanding Oz director Peter Weir. This is another story which says "you are the person I never knew I always wanted" His masculinity to her was at first a turn off, but at the end he swept her off her feet and I always think he would have eaten her up once he got his hands on her, but in a good way, just what her character needed. You can be an independent woman but still need to be loved hard, we all do
