Withnail and I had a waitress in it.
The Great Escape is a very very good guess indeed. I've not seen it, but IMDB certainly doesn't list any females being in the cast, although does anyone know if there are any lady extras in it at all???
The film I'm thinking of was made in the 60s (the British version), with the US remake made in the early 90s. Not sure when the book was published, but it's a timeless classic.

How the hell have you avoided seeing "The Great Escape"?!
I remembered the Night of the Living Dead remake in the 1990s, but that must have women in it, if only amongst the zombies.
Okay, going on famous books alone then (I don't know when, if any films were made of it): Lord of the Flies? I thought Robinson Crusoe at first, but that must have more films than two made of it.

BINGO! Lord of the Flies is the answer I was thinking of... (thought someone had actually guessed it when they said Lord of the Rings).
Robinson Crusoe is also a cracking guess. ... there are probably quite a few others, such as films set on boats, submarines, desert islands and prisons, not to mention some war films and westerns.
Anyway, up you step, Weyland!
(oh, not sure how I've missed Great Escape. I've also never seen any of the Star Wars films except the Phantom Menace, which was so rubbish I've been put off watching any of the rest of them)
