When I read all the reviews of this movie from people who it has affected for the better, I really cannot understand why it hasn't been marketed as a DVD. I agree with pretty much the whole world who agree this is a gem of a movie, with the two main characters played by a beautiful older Jean Simmons and a rugged but ultimately charming, and charmed Joss Acland. I have been to St Ives and even stayed at the Hotel just to experience a tiny moment of the magic this Movie engenders. I shall love it and miss it forever, Ithink, and I,m not a sentimental old fool, just old! I understand that this movie was a 'made for TV' production but so too were many other BBC productions, like truly madly, deeply which went on to be a huge box office hit and is available readily on DVD. Surely the BBC are missing a trick here, judging by the demand for a rerun which this Movie has had. So I say, bring it on BBC and lets keep your worldwide audience happy. Surely the great and beautiful British actress Jean Simmons, now sadly no longer with us, not only would approve but we owe this to her memory....one of the best movies she ever made, and I,m including the likes of The Big Country in that list!
