All That Heaven Allows (Widescreen, Special Edition)

Last Minute Sales & Specials

Jane Wyman is a repressed wealthy widow and Rock Hudson is the hunky gardener who loves her in Douglas Sirk's heartbreakingly beautiful indictment of '50s small-town America. Sirk utilizes expressionist colors, reflective surfaces, and frames-within-frames to convey the loneliness and isolation of a matriarch trapped by the snobbery of her children and the gossip of her social-climbing country club chums.
