Product Description

Romantic film about the lesbian awakening of a wife and mother in 1950's Britain. Ellen Hardy (Barbara Marten) has lived a life in service of others; her parents, her son, her husband, society and given little thought to whether or not she was fulfilled by it. When she meets Kathy (Andrina Carroll), her son's pretty, vivacious and confident teacher, her life looks suddenly rather pale. Unable, however, to simply make such a gigantic change, especially given the morally intolerant climate of North England in the'50s. Ellen and Kathy embark on a tender, unspoken and covert relationship.

3.0 out of 5 stars Go for the region 1 version! 22 Jun 2006
By MK
Format:DVD
A word of advice, if you have a multi-region dvd player, I would definitely recommend watching the region 1 version over the region 2 one! For some reason 2 of the most poignant scenes from this beautiful film have been cut from the region 2 version! I only gave the region 2 version 3 stars, region 1 would be 4 or higher!

3.0 out of 5 stars Slow paced and touching 6 Sep 2007
Format:DVD
A touching, very delicate and slow growing love between a teacher and an unhappily married wife of a millworker in 1957 Huddersfield, Yorkshire,England.
Great in recreating the English industrial countryside and its mentality.
What I didn't like is that the music seemed to cover most of the dialogue taking place.

5.0 out of 5 stars An Alternative View 10 May 2006
Format:DVD
Unlike the earlier reviewer, I found this film an utter delight, for the very reasons s/he probably did not like it - its slow and gentle pace, reflecting a less frenetic age.

"Between Two Women" had none of the explosions, fast car chases, bad language or explicit sex scenes endemic in so many modern films. Thank goodness for that! It was refreshing to watch this love story from 1950s northern England - a visual and narrative treat!
