Ladies in Black - Behind The Scenes

Set in the summer of 1959, when the impact of European migration and the rise of women’s liberation is about to change Australia forever, a shy schoolgirl (Lisa) takes a summer job at the prestigious Sydney department store, Goode’s. There she meets the 'ladies in black', who will change her life forever. Beguiled and influenced by Magda, the vivacious manager of the high-fashion floor, and befriended by fellow sales ladies Patty and Fay, Lisa is awakened to a world of possibilities. As Lisa grows from a bookish schoolgirl to a glamorous and positive young woman, she herself becomes a catalyst for a cultural change in everyone’s lives.

One of the best movies I have seen in a very long time. It was wonderful, loved the characters and how they interacted together. Will definitely be watching it again.

Wonderful to hear, Jeanne :)

I've loved Bruce Beresford for years. I just stumbled upon this movie. It is just lovely. it's not uplifting in a shamlzy nostalgic way. The filmmakers create a world, lovely music, beautiful scenes, great script, gorgeous light. I notice some here say they have watched it more than once. and me too. I may be on my fourth viewing. Whenever I just need confirmation that life can turn out well and people are decent,, I watch this. Thank you Mr. Beresford. You created this very human story about people coming together in unexpected way.

I just finished watching the movie. It was wonderful. This would make a great TV show.

[@jessicahamilton398]

I adore this film. It broke my expectations and it’s just extremely comforting and soothing and optimistic. Makes me feel confident and seen.

[@evamielczarek7338]

What a great film, congatulations Bruce. Each scenario in it could be a whole film in its self. As a Hungarian "refo" myself becoming an Australian Citizen at 2 years old,what golden times in my woderful adopted home.

I've just discovered this hidden gem, I was thoroughly charmed by it.

[@Katrinagaming-en1os]

I grew up in Waterloo so Sydney City was our local shopping centre and I can relate so much to this movie. My mum was born in 1944 and she worked in DJs. She died in 1999 and when I watch this movie I feel so close to her 😇

[@marius964]

My most heartfelt compliments. The movie is so absolutely enjoyable and heartwarming, it put me at rest with the maddening world - for a while at least :) Well done to everybody

[@todmantodman]

What a wonderful movie,thought id just take a look with no expectations,,wow was I surprised,a world class act..period settings/cars/dress/scenery/shops/furniture/houses,so identical to that period..i felt like I had gone back in time and was reliving my past teenage years..actress Angourie Rice is surely destined for a bright future on the screen.as were all the other actors who were superb..direction,production,photography all great.....cant give it enough praise..Great Australian Movie.

Great movie, very relaxing and uplifting. I've watched it four times already and plan to watch it many more times. And why not!

[@stephenfermoyle1498]

LOVE THIS MOVIE SO MUCH GREAT EVERYTHING CASTING SETS LIGHTING WRITING SO WONDERFUL

[@helenahayes6150]

I've just come back from watching this movie. It was a wonderful movie. I want to go back and see it again tomorrow. I was so impressed with how they made a whole city, and all the interiors of the houses look like 1959. Cinematography was fantastic and the casting. They were such real personalities. I felt like I knew every one of them in my life at some point.

[@ScreenAustralia]

Glad to hear that you enjoyed the film, Helena!

[@sorellman]

@@ScreenAustralia It is a lovely feel-good movie. I watched it at least four times, so far. The actors are honest, the story is beautiful, and so is the cinematography.

[@budstar6385]

[@thaminduKavinda]

I'm not into this kind of movies but I tried anyway I can say this is a great movie.

[@susanm4424-w6k]

Will watch the movie later today!

[@louisaparker]

The film seems a bit shallow at first, but if you watch it long enough (about half way through), it grows on you.

[@bikaskerketta533]

when is part 2 comming

[@ScreenAustralia]

Hi there, this behind the scenes look at Ladies in Black is just the one part

[@seventhuser904]

I really enjoyed this movie. I'll give 7.5/10 Rating

[@cinematicconversationswith7761]

Loved the film BUT in the scene at Hyde Park I could CLEARLY see Sydney 2017 traffic in the distance.... it's a minor inconsistency to an otherwise great film.

[@helenahayes6150]

I missed that bit. I'll have to go back and see it for a third time, just so I can pick this out.
