With her husband a Japanese POW, Alice Charlesworth (Glenda Jackson) was wanting for help around the farm, and intimate companionship... and deserting soldier Barton (Peter Deacon) was ready to provide both. With the MPs searching for him, she chose to dress him in drag, and introduce him as her sister-and matters got dicy when the investigating sergeant (Oliver Reed) took a shine to her "sibling." Michael Apted's take on the H. E. Bates novella co-stars Anthony May, Gavin Richards. AKA: "Soldier in Skirts." 90 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: English.
