Between his twin masterpieces All That Heaven Allows (1955) and Written on the Wind (1956), director Douglas Sirk created There's Always Tomorrow, a razor-sharp study of male mid-life crisis, both a glittering testament to love's labours lost and his most unforgiving vision of suburban conformity.

Disregarded and neglected by his family, executive toy manufacturer Clifford Groves (Fred MacMurray) is unexpectedly reunited with his former co-worker Norma Miller (Barbara Stanwyck). As the old friends catch up on lost time, his children's suspicions and hostility to the new relationship threaten to push their father away permanently and throw into disarray the lives of all concerned.

With crystalline, noir-tinged cinematography from Russell Metty (Touch of Evil, Spartacus, The Misfits) and heartbreaking performances by Stanwyck and MacMurray, reunited 12 years after Double Indemnity in their final on-screen pairing, There's Always Tomorrow finds one of Hollywood's greatest dramatists at his finest.

There's Always Tomorrow has been announced for a UK DVD release by Eureka as part of the Masters of Cinema series on 22nd February 2010 at the RRP of £17.99. The disc will contain a new high-definition anamorphic transfer and the following special features:
