Fortress is a 1985 Australian thriller film directed by Arch Nicholson and written by Everett De Roche, and starring Rachel Ward, based on Gabrielle Lord's 1980 novel of the same name.

Production

The novel Fortress by Gabrielle Lord was inspired by the 1972 Faraday School kidnapping of an isolated rural single teacher school and was influenced by William Golding's 1954 novel Lord of the Flies. At one stage it was thought the novel would be filmed by Rupert Murdoch and Robert Stigwood's Associated R&R Films as a follow-up to Gallipoli (1981). However, this never happened.

Everett De Roche wrote the script and originally Bruce Beresford was announced as director. He dropped out and then Arch Nicholson was hired. Crawford and HBO wanted Bess Armstrong to play the lead. Actors Equity objected, so Sigrid Thornton was accepted as a compromise. However, two months prior to shooting Thornton became pregnant and HBO and Crawford insisted on Armstrong.
