Mystery of Canadian soldier

[edit]

While I was reading more information about Queen and Country, I learned a little more about the older sister of John Boorman. Her name was Wendy. She and her Canadian soldier husband, Rene, were parents to a son, Robert, and a daughter, Linda. But what was Rene's last name? Plus, I also learned about Boorman's younger sister, Angela. What are Angela, Robert and Linda doing these days? (I know Wendy passed away in 1994.)24.193.124.17 (talk) 06:30, 11 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

An extensive Google search failed to find anything, except that the wartime romance between his sister and the Canadian soldier is portrayed (with altered names, "Dawn" and "Bruce") in Boorman's autobiographical 1987 film Hope and Glory. Alansplodge (talk) 19:08, 11 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
