A polarizing film comprising a uniaxially stretched film containing a polyvinyl alcohol having a degree of polymerization of at least about 2,500, and at least one polarizing agent selected from iodine and a dichroic dye, as well as a process for the production of the same. This polarizing film is superior in heat resistance and moist heat resistance to conventional films and has excellent optical properties, such as a high polarizing coefficient and transmittance. |
