I noticed this Douglas Sirk film is being released by Eureka Entertainment on September 23 in the U.K. I am a sucker for older films in the CinemaScope format and the reviews seem favourable, plus I had never heard of this film until now. It also appears to come with some interesting supplements so those with a Region free player might want to order it.

It is a very interesting and notable film, coming towards the close of Sirk's American film career. I believe it was a very personal subject matter for Sirk, who lost a son during WW2. It's one of Sirk's most low-key films, hence why it seems to be forgotten in the shuffle with his more popular 50's works ("Imitation of Life", "Magnificent Obsession", "Written on the Wind").
