Comments Edited by Prue Willsher. A novel trnslated to a screen play, The Getting of Wisdom is notable for fluent, consistent direction, rich natural photography, detailed ornate sets and the authenticity of the costuming.
Synopsis The Getting of Wisdom is about Laura Tweedle Rambotham's school years in an Australian boarding school and how she matures. It refers to Luara's loss of values as she finds herself irresistibly attracted to the snobbish criteria of her new peers. Her reputation within the group is perpetually jeopardized by her widowed mother's occupation as post mistress; and her acceptance is subjected to other topsy-turvy trials.
