A Woman’s Tale (1991)
Directed by Paul Cox
The Australian drama A Woman’s Tale offers a bold, honest, intimate look at the last days in the life of an elderly cancer victim.
Director Paul Cox wrote the whole text specifically for lead actress Sheila Florance, an icon of Australian cinema, who was in fact dying of cancer as she played what was essentially a self-portrait.
In fact, Florance passed shortly after the movie was released.
