In talking about the 1927 Australian film adaptation of Marcus Clarke’s novel, For the Term of His Natural Life, noted film historian Graham Shirley will cover the film’s big-budgeted production, its vivid evocation of colonial era landscapes, its Australian box office success, the loss of most of the film over ensuing decades, and its 1981 reconstruction using a newly rediscovered print and other elements.
