Melina Marchetta’s On the Jellicoe Road looks set to become a feature film. The author walks us down the long path of the adaptation process.
The film adaptation of Marchetta’s debut novel, Looking for Alibrandi opened across Australia to critical acclaim in 2000. The story of Josie Alibrandi not only captured the nation’s attention, but also that of the Australian Film Institute, which awarded the film with five AFI awards (now the AACTA Awards), including Best Film.
