Rating:  - Looking for a Chick flick? Look no further!
Paradise Road provides a moving story depicting the unfortunate women who were captured by the Japanese in the South Pacific during World War II. The women learn to live together and with the help of Adrienne Pargiter (Glenn Close) and Margaret Drummond (Pauline Collins), the women form a vocal orchestra which brings them even closer together and enables them to forget their sad circumstances however briefly it may be. Cate Blanchett's performance was noteworthy, as well. She portrays the strong-willed nurse, Susan McCarthy. This film provides an excellent 'chick flick' as it shows women bonding and overcoming the odds to survive. Close, Blanchett, and Collins provide excellent performances, and it is worth seeing the film just to see these remarkable performances.
