This movie, not previously much available, and thus sought after by those who caught things from movie channel telecasts, is now on DVD and being offered on Amazon.

With any luck, the following link to Amazon should work and open the page on the movie's recent DVD release.

[a link i suspected might work has been removed by me, i assume one can got to Amazon and search for the item by title, etc.]

rg, I found the item by entering the title in the amazon box at the top of the screen.

I was intrigued by this, I'd like to see it but let me add that it doesn't seem Amazon is selling this on a regular release. The item is offered only by several Amazon merchants instead, this usually means it's either not in stock at Amazon or not currently in print. All five sellers are asking about $40 which put me off but these things are always subject to supply and demand.

Here's a link:

but I think it's more advantageous to our site to go through the Amazon window on the screen.


A question for the administrators of the site. I searched through the window above and found the item. So the link was created using the portal. Does BT still get a commission if someone uses the link I created or is it necessary to manually enter through the window on top of the screen?
I've been curious about this.

Yes, there is. The plot is another ballerina-dances-herself-to-death item, this time with James Mason as the impresario, but Shearer looks beautiful and dances beautifully. Also, her segment comes first and you don't have to sit through the rest of it unless you want to. I like the dance Ashton made for her here (he used the same music for Rhapsody later, it's "Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini" by Rachmaninoff). As rg says, it' will be nice to have this on DVD - it does get shown on cable occasionally, but usually at odd hours of the day or night.

Thanks for the heads up, rg.

btw, i'd happily put the link back up that i took down if someone could assure my ignorant self that just b/c it goes to my personal account right now that this same link on a 'puter other than mine would go to a generic page and not my personal amazon account page.

Maybe Amazon is in the process of updating their information of this item and not quote everything has caught up yet.

Just from following the links on the amazon page, I wandered into Warner brothers' "shop". They are advertising the DVD for about $20 so that may be a better deal than the one Amazon is offering .
