A poignant story based on the diary of Nella Last, who described herself as a Housewife, 49, in her first submission to a World War 2 Mass Archive project. She was to keep up the submissions for nearly 30 years. The film follows Nellaâ??s life during wartime from 1939 to 1945, as she blossoms from a timid mouse, unable to come out her husbandâ??s shadow, to a determined organizational leader of the Womenâ??s Voluntary Service and the Red Cross. Victoria Wood does a great job of portraying the sadness, humor and often poverty of wartime. She lives through the personality changes of her sons, and the deaths of their companions. all the while growing as a person, becoming more assertive, until by the end of the war, she almost will miss it.

Tender true tale of depressed housewife finding purpose in helping war effort. Says a lot about repressed Brits who'd already lived thru 1 great war & the young who came thru this one. As usual Brit historical costume drama always well done down to last detail

I really loved this gentle movie. A woman finds herself through volunteering during WWII in Britain. This is taken from actual diaries of Nella Last, and her part is played wonderfully by Victoria Wood, who I think is usually a comic actress.

This movie captured war time well. My only question is they never really explained why they were collecting people's diary entries about the war. What were they going to do with them?
