Hi Mark,
The movie description sure is worth pursuing. Doesn't appear be out in
VHS or DVD though. Even a check on Turner Classic Movie sight doesn't
find the movie in their library. So this may be one that we won't get a
chance to see. If TCM has it eventually it may show up as a late night
movie which we could record. Not being in their extensive library makes
it unlikely that we will ever see it. To bad the review sounds so
interesting.
