The visitors arrived in a chartered aircraft, an 18-seat De Havilland Otter, at an airstrip in Port Kaituma, six miles from Jonestown. They rode to the colony along a muddy and barely passable road through the jungle in a tractor-drawn flat-bed trailer. At Jonestown all were greeted warmly by a smiling Jones...

Presumably, that is something the athletic and liberated modern wom an can identify with, but it is a silly business. Olivia de Havilland could prove her fighting spirit with a word or a glance and not suffer even the tiniest rip in her bodice. Poor Bujold, on the other hand, must come close to being stripped to the waist by Shaw's rapier - a dishonorable dueling tactic that his gallant screen forebears...
