    I would love to have a copy of this video.
    Michael Darlow's fine 1988 TV production of this 1940s play by Terence Rattigan far exceeded my expectations. Its clean and precise direction, its sense of time, place, and society in setting and costume, the sensitive realization of character by a cast of superb actors made my only viewing of it ten years ago memorable. I am planning to direct a stage production of it in 2000 locally. How I wish I had taped it! I am on a seach mission for a copy of this video. I recommend it highly.
