FOR THE TERM OF HIS NATURAL LIFE (1927) – A FILM LOST AND FOUNDA FREE WEBINAR BY GRAHAM SHIRLEY – 2 pm on Sunday 19 MARCH 2023
In talking about the 1927 Australian film adaptation of Marcus Clarke’s novel, For the Term of His Natural Life, noted film historian Graham Shirley will cover the film’s big-budgeted production, its vivid evocation of colonial era landscapes, its Australian box office success, the loss of most of the film over ensuing decades, and its 1981 reconstruction using a newly rediscovered print and other elements.
