As both a History and Media Studies teacher I think this is a charming film to illustrate an unseen part of the home front experience as well as being stylish with some film noir elements. Would love to download this for use in class or buy a copy. Please advise options.

A really moving cameo of a different life and time. I was touched by the insights into the stresses wrought on everyone by war and separation. Great to see a feisty Kiwi lassie too.
How can I get hold of a copy for use in a school-is it ok to download it from this site (with FVD or similar?)
