Paradise Road is a small enriching story based on the true events of Female P.O.W.'s captured by the Japanese. At times the film hits absolute notes of triumph -- making it truly great. Other times the film drags. It's also flawed because it has so many major characters -- you forget who is who.
Of the cast Glenn Close and Cate Blanchett come out looking the best -- while Frances McDormand and Julianna Margulies come off less then favorable.
