Diaries of a Prisoner


Romeo + Juilet : This could relate to my Radio play because its about two people who are in war fighting family who fall in love. Which could realte to my idea about the Jewish girl and the German soldier meeting and falling in love even though in WW2 that would never of happened or allowed.


The English Patient:
The film is set during World War II and depicts a critically burned man, at first known only as "the English patient," who is being looked after by Hana, a French-Canadian nurse in an abandoned Italian monastery. The patient is reluctant to disclose any personal information but through a series of flashbacks, viewers are allowed into his past. Set before and during World War II, The English Patient is a story of love, fate, misunderstanding and healing. Told in a series of flashbacks, the film can best be explained by unwinding it into its two chronological phases.
This can help me because it re visits stories of the past through someone's diary. It is also set during and before WW2 which shows the effect it had on everyone everywhere. It also has the theme of Jealousy, love, fate and trust which are the same themes that i would like in my radio play.
