I bought this from a DVD stall 2 weeks ago. Its packaged as part of " The



Alexander Korda Collection" along with 19 other titles. The quality is very good



although apart from having scene selection there are no other extra features.



Another bootleg perhaps?

News of two Robert Donat films in one week Hopefully The Cure for Love will be next.

Often wondered why of all Mr D's films that still exist The Cure For Love is so hard to get hold of

It is also coming from Criterion as part of one of their new Eclipse sets, along with The Rise of Catherine the Great, Rembrant and The Private Life of Don Juan.

Did you see it when it was shown at the NFT last year? It's a great film though a bit odd to see Dame Thora playing a character supposedly old enough to be Mr D's grandmother.

Shame - it was an excellent season. Think they showed all of Mr D's surviving films except for Cash.
