Into the Blue & Intimate Relations on DVD in January

12 December 2014

Network Distributing have announced a further two titles for UK DVD release in January as part of their ongoing 'The British Film' collection: Into The Blue, in a comedy directed by Herbert Wilcox and starring Michael Wilding; and Intimate Relations, a romantic comedy from the 1930s starring June Clyde and Moore Marriott.

Into the Blue (1950)

A mysterious stowaway opens the door to adventure for two unsuspecting holidaymakers in this comedy feature from Herbert Wilcox (Odette, Forever And A Day). Co-produced by and starring Michael Wilding (Stage Fright, In Which We Serve) at the peak of his fame.

Enjoying their first holiday for several years, Mr and Mrs Fergusson are relaxing on board a yacht off the coast of France. With them are the skipper-owner and his adopted daughter, Jackie, as crew. Then a young man, Nicholas, is discovered on the yacht's dinghy with two suitcases. The stranger refuses to give any explanation for his presence, and the Fergussons soon find themselves involved in a rather more eventful sailing trip than they had bargained for.

Into The Blue is featured here in a brand-new transfer from the original film elements, in its as-exhibited theatrical aspect ratio, and will be released on UK DVD on 26th January 2015 at the RRP of £9.99 by Network Distributing as part of 'The British Film' collection.

Intimate Relations (1937)

This wry, charming romantic comedy from 1938 features a marvellously caddish turn from Garry Marsh (Dead Of Night, Number 17), as a philandering husband whose wife proves to be every bit as adept as he in the art of deception.

George Gommery enjoys slipping up to town to see some little actress, and never suspects that his wife can play the same game just as well as he can. Or at least, he never suspects until he tells his wife that her lover is engaged to the woman whom he has been entertaining in London.

Also starring the lovely June Clyde (A Student In Scarlet, Seven Doors To Death) and '30s comedy legend Moore Marriott (Ask A Policeman, Convict 99), with music from acclaimed British bandleader Lew Stone, Intimate Relations is presented here in a brand-new transfer from the original film elements, in its as-exhibited theatrical aspect ratio.

Intimate Relations will be released on UK on DVD on 26th January 2015 at the RRP of £9.99, courtesy of Network’s ‘The British Film’ collection.
