If I Were Free on DVD

Sarah Casanove can only watch as her callous husband leaves her for another woman. Crushed and humiliated, she finds a friend in English barrister Gordon Evers, himself mired in a hopeless marriage. Their friendship turns into something deeper - but Gordon's wife, eager to hold on to a financially successful husband, will not free him. Have the lovers only traded one kind of despair for another? Radiant Irene Dunne and suave, sardonic Clive Brook make a cosmopolitan pair of star-crossed lovers in the poignantly titled If I Were Free, based on John Van Druten's (I Remember Mama) stage play Behold We Live. A bonus: Dunne lends her soprano to a couple of charming tunes.
